Panoramic roof blind creeps forward

Rev77 · 10-05-2016, 03:04 PM

My 335d is approaching its 2 week birthday, and the one (daft) thing that's annoying is the panoramic roof blind, I have it open all the time and it gradually creeps forward, has anyone else got this issue or is it a trip to the dealer to complain?

Holding the lock button to fold the mirrors?

Are you sure it's not just closing a little each time you hold down the lock button on the key to lock the doors and fold the mirrors in?

Russbmw · 10-05-2016, 03:07 PM

LOL!

Yes I do hold the lock button to fold the mirrors, is it trying to close the blind too?
Time to find a coder in Lincoln to make the fold one touch ��

Yep! Also noticed this happening when holding down the lock button for too long.

Love it when you get a quick answer 😁
Now all I need is a coder in the East Midlands (Lincoln) area...

It still does it after coding to one touch fold as I coded mine & it does the same as yours still.

Really? This was annoying me so I just got into the habit of using the button on the armrest to fold the mirrors before getting out of the car. That took away the need to use the button on the key fob to fold them and when I lock the car with one press on that button the blind on the sunroof appears to stay put; are you saying the blind on your sunroof edges shut when you do that or is it only doing so because you've got the mirrors coded to fold when you press the key fob button once? First world problems.....!

Does the same on the wife's X5.

To be honest, I/we always close it anyway, as I don't think having what sunlight we do get directly cooking the leather seats does them any favours.

I've never folded the mirrors on exit by pressing the button so can't answer that question - seems a bit of a faff to me ! I always lock by short press on fob which locks doors & folds mirrors. If the sunroof is open I have to press a bit longer to auto shut the roof too. The blind creeps closed each time I lock the car though maybe only if I long press to shut the roof. TBH it doesnt bother me as only takes a quick hold of the button to open blind fully before press button to open the roof for ventilation.

Sorry to resurrect - all new to this F31 malarkey - has anyone found a way to stop the roof blind slowly creeping forward yet?!

Grant_7 · 09-16-2017, 06:18 AM

Mine does this too. Doesn't really bother me however.

JustChris · 09-16-2017, 09:19 AM

That time of year again. Thread crops up from time to time OP nothing to worry about.
