Just tried to open our roof this morning and it made a loud bang in the heat, I guess where the weather seal had got hot.
When the roof was half way up it stopped elevating and would not come back down again!
I have subsequently smelt something different only to find oil dripping down the outside of the a pillar. Come to think of it, there has been something sticky around here for a while so maybe it’s been slowly leaking for a while. I thought it was tree sap!
I think this could be a hydraulic pipe leaking, does anyone have any experience with this problem and any idea of price to fix?
I am going to try and lower it manually tomorrow, can the roof be opened again by hand if I turn the emergency screw?
Should have got a Cali pBeach!
Many thanks
Andrew
