Yes I know I'm reviving a dead thread. But can someone actually walk me through the disabling of the rear section?
My rear section will go up, not down. With the roof in tilt, I manually pushed the ramps on either side all the way back to the bump stops so the roof closed. I removed the torx screws on either side, and per instructions I found on here, went outside and pushed the rear section down until I heard a pop.
I then tried to reinitialize the moonroof because it's stuck in 2-inch at a time safety mode.
The rear section still opens and I have to force it back again. Am I supoosed to leave the ramps in the forward position and repeat the procedure or am I missing something else? 2006 3.0 if it matters.
