Sunroof blues

["J. Smethers" <smethers@fast.net>]

Quattro-philes,

I encountered a problem today with the sunroof on my '86 4KCSQ.  When I go
to close the roof, the motor action is very slow.  It actually stopped
mid-close and I had to keep pushing the toggle switch again and again until
it finally shut completely.  All other functions are fine (roof open, tilt
roof open and closed).  I need to isolate the specific cause of the
slow/stopping movement.  Anyone with ideas, or similar experiences?  Thanks
in advance.

Regards, Jeffrey Smethers
