My sunshade won’t close all the way. Is it the same problem with the clips or something else? I have an 02 325ci. When I try to open the sunroof it crackles and the sunshade goes in the roof all the way and gets stuck there and I have to fish it out. Can somebody please help?

@42OKing69 It could be the sunshade driver is sticking....you need to remove the glass panel and look into the roof cavity and see if there are any plastic bits in there from the tabs. Also, check for the sunshade driver...its the silver looknig thing on the left side. You can see it in my video and I do point it out. That's about all I know.

hey what diy instructions did you use on your computer??....i know there are a few out there....jw if you may have had something different.

@danewilliams833 I just googled alot before I did the repair. I don't recall exactly which instructions I used but checking e46fanatics or bimmerfest for links to online DYI guides.
