Don?t know if it?s related or not. After I upgrade my CIP to ver 20.x, it will take me many times to close my moon roof.

When I do one-touch close, my moon roof will close all the way but reopen itself and stop at half way. I also tried to close it without one-touch, that didn?t help either.

What I did is to keep trying and trying after 8+ times, it finally closed it completely. Anyone has this experience before??

Do a search--sunroof initialization directions were posted in the past.

Stream: Thanks. But I did the search before I create the post. Most of the sunroof/moonroof post are talking about noise problem.

Thank you for alerting me to something I have not tried. Everything, but performance, works very well for me after updating to 20+. I'll let you know if I have the same problem. Perhaps Stream's fix will work. I hope so.
