Pan roof problem
Does anyone have problems opening the pan roof if it hasn't been opened for a while? mine seems a bit jammed and needs a push to help it, I'm to scared to force it to much once opened is there anything that can be done to lube it up ?

Door pocket ambient lighting
Was bmw the first manufacturer to have it? I'm sure my old e36 had it.

Re: Pan roof repair 2017 F15
My e70 pano roof gets a bit stuck if I haven't used it much, I just help push it back with the palm of my hand whilst pressing the button and it opens fine.
