I eventually fixed it simply by giving all the rubber seals that seal against the painted roof a good scrub with all purpose cleaner. Seems dirt had solidified on the rub points causing tolerances to be too tight. Works a charm after a full clean.
Good to hear you got it working. I would still suggest BMW fluorinated lubricants Carbaflo or newer Krytox on the seals.
