Default 87' 944 Turbo Roof

How can I troubleshoot my roof not fully locking down when it's supposed to be in the down position? With the roof down and looking like it's sitting flush with the roof I can still push the back of the roof up. When I'm driving I noticed at high speed a wind/whistle sound, which I thought were seals. They actually may be the case, but I did see the roof lift a bit on a bump. How do I fix that?

Common problem. I finally had to go with manual latches to solve the S/R lifting at hi-speeds.

You can manually adjust the sunroof levers by accessing the motor in the left rear fenderwell to lock it down. Check Clark's garage for a write-up on this and troubleshooting the mechanism.
