Sunroof/moonroof question

I wanted to ask my fellow X1 owners something.

My car had a lot of problems with the panoramic sun roof/moon roof.
The rubbers always became loose and even fell off when opening and closing a lot (with warm weather 3-8 times a days using it and every 2-4 days problems).

After 5 several times the BWM dealar this seems solved, well, not actually but now it gets a little bit loose after a couple of weeks.
Only going to the dealer for it when other problems occur. Every time I need to have people getting me there and getting me back and need to find a spare car for that day or stay at home. Small luck, it is BMW Premium.

Last I checked and it seems strange to me.
I attached some pictures.

What I think is strange is the holes on the front side (when roof is open), it's in the middle but on the side's as well.
Is this normal?
Could anyone post a picture of he's open roof on the pre facelift X1 model?
You would think a piece is missing.

When you look down in the car with open roof it looks silly but I think that is normal and there is no extra cover?


Kind regards,
Bart

I've a 2013 with panoramic and no issues, but I only use it once or twice a month. Sounds like you use it frequently?

I think you are missing a bit, unless the pop up wind deflector is there but not showing in your picture?

It's dark and raining so I can't get a picture but on my 2011 model, when the sun roof is open, there is a little plastic frame and gauze that pops up.

Thanks for the reply all.

Previous month I was driving open all the time, so sometimes the roof went open 8 times a day. Today I was cleaning the rubbers and noticed it was partially out of the rail again.

About that little windscreen popping up, I have that yes, it is hard to see on the picture because of the angle of the picture. Just behind it, it seems... well... ugly, sober, poor build, not sure if that is normal. The white stuff I washed off,well, with some force. But the drilled holes... not sure if that is normal.

All similar pictures welcome so I could compare.

Hi,

Not sure you still need pictures of other sunroof, but here you go with mine:



Obviously you don't have that wind deflector.

For the rest, I have the same holes, so all ok here.

Let me know if you'd like more pictures.

Cheers
