Buying a used sunroof: what to check

  1. Inspect perimeter glass weatherseal: Check outer rubber seals for dry rot, shrinkage, or gouges that allow cabin water leaks.
  2. Verify track guide cable and slide shoe integrity: Examine side drive tracks for broken plastic slider feet, snapped tension cables, or dried white grease gunk.
  3. Check frame drain tube nipples: Inspect all four corner aluminum or plastic drain nipples for cracks that dump rainwater into vehicle headliners.
  4. Confirm motor assembly and control module inclusion: Ask whether track assemblies include the electric drive motor, position encoder, and overhead control module.
  5. Clear body drain tubes before track installation: Blow compressed air through vehicle pillar drain tubes to prevent immediate water backup into the headliner.
