Sunroof Not Opening, Tilt Works, But Not Slide...
so my sunroof quite working sorta. i think something is jamed idk though. i noticed this first around christmas but cause it was always so cold and rainy i didnt care, but not that its sunny out for a few days i want it back!
so heres is my issue, it tilts up just fine as normal, and comes back in to the "parked" setting just fine, but when i try to open it with the slide back feature it drops the rear a little and stops the passenger side drops further than the drivers, the drivers seams to almost get caught on the edge of the roof(idk). but as soon as i go out and push down on it, it clears but still wont go back(i have had someone try to work the switch as im pushing on the glass to see if i can manually override it that way and still nothing). i also notice that the drivers side front seams to come up higher than the passenger side when trying to retract into the roof... you can hear the motor sound like it gets a good load, strong enough to stop it, there is no click click or clicking like its popping a breaker or the gears are stripped, so im stumped. i dont want to have to pull the head liner to look at if i can avoid it. i have lubed the track(probably like 4 months ago so i know its not dry. i can not see any broken parts when i tilt it up and look down the rails or in the mechanisms so im turning to you guys... thanks for any advice and imput.

well i found out what it was, after getting a little mirror and looking around in there i found a rock that had some how managed to get into the track between the front and rear legs of the glass, and would not let the sunroof come down all the way, and subsequently when the sunroof did drop it would come down ontop of the rock and bind up not allowing the sunroof to travel... all is good now everything works. i still have no freakin idea how that rock got in there... maybe from wheeling, but i dont go wheeling with my sunroof open so i doubt that.
this is the rock, damn little bas****
