How to fix the sticking or finicky sunroof on a Mini Cooper

[@peterpiper7441]

I love the fact that you scientifically tested the fix afterwards using a thermo gauge, to check if it still works after heating up. Very good work!

Awesome video thank u I just bought my Cooper S and the sunroof stuck I followed your advice and it worked perfectly. Thank you 😊

Two of our MINIs (we have 5 in the family!) had the exact same problem recently. I did notice once they cooled off, they worked better, though still not correctly. I also noticed ours had some dirt/debris built up on the edges of the weatherstrips. I cleaned them and applied a liberal amount of silicone on both the glass and body sides of the gaskets. And it does indeed make all the difference in the world. So before anyone makes a high dollar mistake and heads off the their MINI stealership, they should absolutely try this.

I just had my sunroof cleaned, two months ago they just had to do it, now the sunroof doesn't close once open. I think mini did something. I'm going to try this trick hopefully it works.

I don’t know why you don’t have more comments so I’m gonna leave on thank you for the videos

[@britalian1]

I did what you did and it worked. Awesome. Thank you so much. 🙏

Better than removing the deflector which someone else did in another video. Good luck with your Mini

[@falsem1nd]

thank you, I've had my sunroof doing this a couple of times, if it keeps closing and immediately opening, I'll try your trick!

[@mcmcminicooper]

Let me know if it worked for you. Knowledge is the key in keeping these Minis running.

I'm sitting here in a one-bedroom apartment and thinking, 'wow, you have a garage?'

Awesome tip

[@single_cam9199]

Do you have a part number for the outer seal that goes onto the roof

[@mcmcminicooper]

@@single_cam9199 Luckily I was planning on changing out my seal too. I got my parts at Bmwpartshub.com Sunroof Frame Seal -Mini (54-10-9-813-413) Other parts Rear Weather Strip - Mini (54-10-2-755-852) Front Weather Strip - Mini (54-10-2-755-851) Good luck

[@single_cam9199]

Thanks, it will be better then it is that’s for sure person I got it from looks like he chewed the whole thing. bro,it took 3hrs to get off the amount of caulking they smeared from the glass over the seal and on the roof

[@mcmcminicooper]

@@single_cam9199 Lol. Previous owner must have seen the fix on TikTok FYI - clean out the drain holes and check that the drain hoses are not loose or leaking. Did a video on this.

[@tm5346]
