My sunroof moves really slow and needs a little push to get started back, also needs to be "helped" the whole way to close. My battery has a good charge and i'm curious to wiether many others have had the same problem and how it was resolved. I'm assuming the motor may be on its last leg. Also my p/windows seem to be somewhat slower than they should be, what if any kind of grease should be used and where should it be applied? Thanks you guys are awesome.

 

Make sure the tracks that the sunroof rides on are cleared of debris. Stuff caught in there can really slow it down. As for the power windows, mine have always been slow, so I dunno about those.

 

bump

 

Spray some lithium grease on both tracks in the sunroof assembly. The windows prolly need the same thing, a little grease in the tracks.

 

hmm wouldnt know manual windows but i its not time to replace your motors but they are getting slower and i too have to help my sunroof its like an old dog man

 

Tracks are sticky. Clean them good. I have to do it every year or so.

 

my sunroof was having the same problem, I put some white grease and it worked good. Until one day i tried to open it and only one side would move... i don;'t know if something is jamming the left side but the dam thing won't open anymore. are there 2 motors in the sunroof or one for the whole thing ?

 

i also have a sunroof problem....i have an 88 TII....the motor works cause when i hit the button it makes a noise....kinda like ive pushed it too far closed or something, but it wont open.....would it just be the tracks or does the sound the motor make a bad sound...

 

When only one side of my sunroof would move, my dad and I took it out. We found out it was a broken cable on the side that didnt move. Part is about $130 from Mazda. It sucks replacing it too.
