[mk405]

ok so my lady has an 07 jetta 2.5 and is having some serious problems with the sunroof. it has a mind of its own sometimes while driving the sunroof will just open by itself with the knob in the off postion and u would have to play with it in order for it to close. now the knob is turned slightly open and the sunroof is closed completely but it will still open on its own from time to time. at this point i pulled the fuse to end the problem but i would really like suggestions on how to fix the problem so that the sunroof works properly without having to take it somewhere and get raped SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME OUT

I had an 06 Jetta 2.5 and the sunroof would open to the up position, but never had problems with getting to close back or open up when I wanted it to. It would do it about once a month. Now....my 07 Passat has started doing the very same, a couple of months ago. Dealership can't diagnose anything since it doesn't do it for them upon inspection. GL hope you get the issue resolved. I have searched the forums trying to see if anyone else had this same issue and no luck.

I have found a post about possible fix to the problem! People are saying to pop the switch out and use a pencil top eraser to get all the fuzz and gunk out. Not sure if that will fix your problem, but it's worth a try. They say once the switch for the sunroof gets dirty it causes it to open and etc on it's own.
