Paul-
It sounds like the sunroof problem might be that one of the tilt
brackets,
if not both, is broken.

Gents-

Met Kevin here in Sunny Hartford here last week, he's attempting to join
the List but somehow his registration keeps getting kicked back.
ANYway, just drove his car and he has some Q's for the collective wisdom
here (insert "sound of worm-can opening" here):

Patient:  '95.5 //S6 ~ 116k bone stock, very nice condition

1)  Coolant level on the low side, operating temp fine, negligible smell
of coolant underhood, no visible leaks.  Shut car off, sound of
"bubbling / pressure" is audible.  Unscrew reservoir, pressure released,
sound gone. While my initial gut tells me this is typically symptomatic
of head gasket leakage, I never thought these cars were really known for
HG failure, in stock form, in good cond., @ lowish miles.

Bueller?

2)  Sunroof reportedly stuck once due to ice, then "broke free" and
opened. Now, when closed and inside, you can reach up and push up on the
rear edge of glass and it's rather loose up and down.  And when it
closes, it closes 7/8 way, then kicks back open.  Close again and it's
fine.

Bueller?  Bueller?

Anyone with suggestions for Kevin here, be sure you cc him in your
response. Also, feel free to try and help him figure out how to properly
subscribe here.
