Thank you so much. My mechanic said he didn't have the tools to do this fix. I think I'll send him a flat head screwdriver!

Awesome stuff. It worked on my x3. The dealer wanted between $2900 to 4000 to fix mines.

THANK YOU MAN YOU'RE AWESOME!!!!! It's so nice to see somebody taking the time to help another person by creating a video that saves me money thank you so much man you're incredible

Thank you for sharing. I was having a panic attack just thinking of how much it would cost to fix. I fixed the roof following your video. The only problem I had was the clips that hold the panel broke so now I have a tape holding the panel where the motor is. Thanks anyway. You a a life saver

This video saved me 4000. We did everything except open up the panel and it worked perfectly. Thank you so much for your help. I was so worried about spending that money for a new rotar and cassette, I think I'm saying it right. Your the best.

You're a master - thanks for saving our Xmas holidays - no one was happy to help and ur video saved our day.

Thank you sir. I looked on every channel to try and fix my roof and nobody I mean nobody had a real fix except for you. Great job I am now a subscriber to you channel. Thank you once again.

Thank you for making this video. My 2004 X3 had the problem for a month and it rained yesterday. It's a mess and I wanted to pay the dealer to fix it. Your video helped me fix it in 10 minutes.

This guy save me $2500 parts and labor on my BMW X3 same problem he had it works... Thank you.

i CAN'T THANK YOU ENOUGH FOR THIS INFORMATION! I WAS NEARLY AT THE POINT OF TAKING AN AX TO MY X3 OVER THIS ISSUE. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!

Thank you so much for posting this video! Your saved my E61 from a very wet Scottish autumn.

Haven't actually done the fix yet, but I'm heading out to do it right now. Well documented, clear and thorough.

Thanks a bunch for the help!!!! My local dealer wanted $3,000 for this job...

Exactly what I needed. You saved me lots of money and anxiety. Sent you some paypal $ in appreciation, and I encourage others to do so as well.

Had my first problem with the roof today but managed to get it closed without doing this, as I can see this may lead to another problem was great to watch your video in case things get more serious !! Thanks very much indeed.

Thanks so much for making this it's people like you who make the internet what a great thing it is!! Cheers from London!!!

After the air conditioning has "quit" me just in time before my summer vacation and after checking in the air conditioning workshop it was clear that it is the evaporator, which must be new (sits in the air conditioning box, for which the entire (!) Dashboard must be removed, was now certain - I must fix at least NOW my also since purchase identically sticking panoramic roof. For the climate calls my workshop around the 2,500 euros - that must wait. Panorama roof repair would also be around the 900-1,200 euros in the best case, a new complete cassette would cost around the 3,000 euros. YOUR video practically saves me the vacation, especially since it seems as if the whole thing would be within an hour (?) already clarified?! I could "kiss" you, my unknown friend! Best E61 fix ever! Thick THANK YOU!

you were sent from heaven , its raining in my town and I need to close the rear glass .. what a great video, thanks for posting..

Great job with this (and what a pleasant voice you have)! After my next cup of coffee, I'm going to tackle this on my '05 BMW X3. Suddenly, the back tilt panel won't close and I think you'll be my hero!

thanks ...this helped a lot after my dealer told me it will cost over $1000... i did it in 20 mins ... good stuff!!!

What an absolute legend!!! The anxiety was real, as I know the dealer would’ve charged a fortune to even look at it!! Genuinely appreciate your help & glad you took the time to form 1 of the best tutorials. (Berkshire, UK)

U gave the solution I was looking for and fixed temporarily... Hats off mate

Hey man a big big thank you from me ❤️❤️your video saved the day , I was so stressed with this problem and this just sorted it out , thanks a million from me 👍🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧best wishes from Britain 😁😁

Thank you sir it worked for my 2004 x3 3.0i. I followed your both part 1 & 2 videos and fixed the problem completely of the rear glass. Now I can enjoy the features except rear glass exhaust.

Thanks so much for this. I've got an 2004 x5 with almost the same problem. After watching your video, went out to my car with a hammer and screwdriver and... voila... I fixed the sunroof. I thought I was going to have a $500 bill on my hands. Instead, I fixed it myself in 5 minutes. Thanks for taking the time to make this.

You just saved me a lot of money and hassle! The garage said the whole roof needs to be taken off and I would need to leave the car with them. Many thanks

Thank you sir, all the way from South Africa. 🙏🏽 You just saved me $1000 US. Your method worked exactly !

Absolutely the clearest, most useful instructions I have seen. Dank U Wel! Dirk v. Hal

Tx for all info. I've could save 3-4K thanks to your video. Greetings from Spain!!!

Thanks for posting these videos (Part 1/2). Worked like a charm.

This totally worked for me. Thank you so much! You gotta love You Tube!!!

You save my life and my family ! Thank you so much !

I got an x3 and had exact the same problem. Thanks for the video, saved me the $$ to take the car to an auto electrician.

Thank you brother. I was able to fix mine. I was worried to pay a lot of money to change the motors. You rocked.

Hi Thanks for the video it helped me a lot, the easy way to do the job is at the 3 minuet mark of the video if you press the button to make the roof go down then turn the key of the car off at that time it stays down if you do this just as it hits the back glass then continue at the 5 min mark

Great video. Fixed my sunroof in minutes. I was surprised to learn BMW has been using this sunroof in the X3 since it made its first debut in 2004.

WOW! I was just about to go tape the sunroof up. When I said to myself check youtube and there your video was saved me from tapping up my x3 thx many times over.

Thank you so much! Your fix worked like a charm!!

Ah. Mazing! Can't wait to try it out on my stuck moonroof and save some major money. Thx for the hack!

Realy all my thanks from France !!! you save my life boy ;)

Awesome! Thank you from New Zealand. My sunroof was stuck open on the back right hand side. Did exactly as you showed and it worked. Cheers. Going to have a cold beer for you.

Roger (APPfordable APPs) you having a cold beer for me helps me how ;) glad it all worked out

Thank you...had to do it twice though. Some wacky thing happened after I did it the first time. I pushed the button forward to align it and the big window slid all the way back and rested under the small one. I had no idea our sunroof would do that. Did get it fixed in the end. Thanks again.

Fantastic video, and if I can do it then anyone can. It solved the problem completely, and saved a fortune in garage fees. Legend!

Thank you. Managed to get the roof closed before a major storm! 🙂

You just safed me in the middle of the night in poring rain! Thanks!!!!!🎉

Great video, easy understandable, and perfect camera holding... Thanks

OMG! Thank you for this video. Instructions are detailed and easy to follow. I appreciate you.

Thanks for the second time! You have officially saved me $310. It costs $155US to have the sunroof closed by the dealer. A friend and my son both opened it after already paying the dealership once to shut it since I am not paying $2997 to have it replaced. I have now placed black electrical tape over the button. Cheers

You can diconnect the wires from the motor, still the sunshade works and the glass part stays in one place with no wires. The warning in the dash shows allert, but you dont need a tape in the sealing :)

thank you so much!! this was so easy and saved me the hassle of going to my mechanic!!

Great video!! Really helped! Just watched it and fixed my mom's 2005 x3. Thanks a bunch!

I thought I broke my sister in laws BMW sunroof and had to shell out 3-4k, until she told me about your video. This took 5 minutes including getting the wrench from the tool box. FANTASTIC!!!!!! Thank You!

Real man that knows how to deal with a such thing. God bless you!!!

Thanks for taking the time to do your Beemer sunroof videos. Hope my new car (second hand) doesn't suffer the usual issues but at least I'll know what to do to fix it. thanks.

I watched this video and went out to my x3 and did it . It really worked thank u 👍🏾😍👍🏾👍🏾

Thank you so much watch this video and got my sunroof back to normal position right before the rain 🌧️ came. Can’t thank you enough great video

I know this video is now 8 years old, but thanks a lot. This helped me out massively today 👍

This video saved me $3500. I am just stunned. How does one say “thank you for making it” that equals the significance of that? THANK YOU SO MUCH

Very nice! Thanks, you are a very good person! for 3 months i have the roof open.

Thank you so much. It's 6 degrees here and I've been outside for an hour trying to figure this out.

Major thanks man! No mechanic within an hour and a half would even look at the damn thing.

Thank you soo much for this helpful video!! We were able to follow along exactly and it fixed our problem, such helpful clear instructions when before watching we didn't know where to begin, thanks a ton!!

Thank you! Saved me tons of headache. Awesome clear video instruction.

Mr. You just earn another subscriber lol!! Thank a lot really help on my X5!!

I know it is an old post but it recently helped me a lot and i want to share an advice. The video is great and comprehensive but i think it should be mentioned that is important to bring the front panel all the way down first, either manualy with the hex key or by short presses on the button. If you don't bring the panel down first, the mechanism in the back will be locked and won't move.

Wow thank you this video was very clear awesome views and it helped me close that dang sunroof what a pain thank you again

I thought it was broken.. I tried 4 times.. on the 5th try. IT WORKED.. I wasn't patient 👍👍

Nice work! The best video and info on this I have found. Thanks

You are the best person on KZread right now

thank you!!! saved me hours of time and a huge headache!!

Thank you for the clear instruction! really saved me so much pain for booking and going to the dealership!

Thanks, this helped a lot! Greetings from Germany.

i just brought a bmw x5 a mouth ago with out notice the small part of the sun roof was tilted , it was a private sell . anyway i just looked at your video and i manage to shut it after, i don't really know how long it's been like that , it's so rusted , so i just want to thank you for your video and your big help of shutting my sun roof

you saved my life !! it works!!!! thank you

That’s amazing!! Thanks for sharing the knowledge.!great video !

I found it difficult to open around the switches for access to panel so instead I tapped the close button little by little as I pushed the mechanisms back as far as it would let me...tapped some more for the main roof to close then finally everything closed. It opened on the first couple tries until I got really patient tapping the close button and doing the pushing on the back mechanisms for smaller window closure. I only had a screwdriver at the time. Went well. Thanks a million.

You just saved my sunday, got the back roof closed thanks to your video! Donation on the way

Thank you so much happened to my 2015 X5 I was freaking out I thought I had to go to the dealer I did this and completely worked but when I tilted it stays up like that again so I can’t tilted I just have to open the front sunroof but not tilt it

This video helped me out a ton. I just got an 07 x3 today and this exact thing happened. Your technique worked like a charm. You saved my interior from rain leaking in. Thanks!!

Thanks a lot mate! This will hopefully help but in any way you showed it properly I liked that!

Awesome video. Gonna go back into garage to try this on my 07 cooper s.

Thanks! You saved my day, and saved the roof from a cover of empty garbage bags and duct-tape!

Thank you very much .. Your fix work perfect and saved me over $2,000 US . You are the best

Thank You So Very Much for Saving the Day!!!

Thank you soooo much!!! You saved me a lot of money!!! A subscriber to the Tenth Power!!!

thank you so much for putting this video up. really helped alot.

Thank you ! Great advice! All the best !

Excellent stuff. Thanks for posting.

You just save my x5.... thanks a lot buddy

Thank you very much Sir! For decades I'm a 5-series guy. I was going to switch to an X3 or X5 because I liked the panoramic moonroof. Having watched your video in my research for my next wheels, I now realized the double-panel feature is trouble prone. Yes, I'm handy and mechanically inclined; but I've also become lazy in my pre-retirement years and just don't wanna deal with it to begin with. I think I should stick with single-panel deals.
