re: sunroof slow
<<After this adventure, I'm going to give the sunroof motor a look and see if
I can figure out why the thing is slowing down(it's not lube...been there,
done that...)
Thanks

A common cause of the sunroof slowing down is a dirty mechanism, that later
has a heavy oil added for "lubrication". The combination of cold weather,
thick oil, and dirt is too much for the sunroof to overcome. Try cleaning out
all of the old grease, etc. from the cables and tracks, and see how it works.
Lubricate with a very light film of oil, or use a silicon product.
