What a start to my weekend...
Woke up, went to get my car form parking next to my apartment ( i cover often with the car cover). Took of the cover and discovered that the smaller panorama panel is broken.
Looked like something felt down from tree above, but i had it parked there for 3 years, and nothing happened. Couldn't find any stones or heavy part of the tree...
Personally i think someone has broken it...[attachment=161989:2011-10-08 11.08.49.jpg]
Guys any one has any idea how can i DIY? Price think will be aprox 250euros

Doesn't seem like a DIY to me, good luck with it!

that stinks...
don't think you can remove the small panel without taking the whole roof out.
but have a look here, maybe you can find detailed instructions:

Thanks Mate.
Will go tomorrow to local bmw dealer, inquire if it can be done without having removing whole thing.
I fond on ebay the whole panorama for 350euros, not a bad price.
I will post more news once things start shifting.

It's finally done!
I didn't have to remove the complete panorama platform.
Insuring my car, with a full cover next month.
did it in a 30min with Friend of mine in a Garage.

Nice DIY.
My butt would probably go into an involuntary poop loop if I saw that happen to my Panamera. To paint the picture as clear as possible, the following x86 resembles what would probably happen:

There is a rattle in my roof that I want to sort out and it'll be by removing that piece.
