Nah, if it were one of the sunroof gears, you would still get the whirr of the sunroof motor but no action. When I push the button to lower the roof, I get pure, absolute, dead silence. I would consider myself lucky if it were that simple.

[quote]OK so let's figure out a solution to our problems and sorta do the opposite for repairs <hr></blockquote>Dont: you will end up with one working and one completely dead, figting eachother for the car with the working roof... 
Check the switch in the roof, very crappy design that easily gets mis-aligned.
If you operate the roof carefully, you can live without (so jump the contacts for testing).
Add to toolbox:
- flashlight, small.
- spanner 13 mm & 10 mm
- 2 piece of wood (for those WITH spare tire), one 2 inch thick to drive the flat wheel on and ine 1/4 inch playwood to go under the jack.
