Panoramic roof - stutters when opening

[Neokane]

Has anyone had this happen.. it sounds like it needs a good dab of lube on the rails or something..
But I'm sure there is no FCA recommendation on lube or proper application points.

White lithium grease on the rollers and slides. They recommend Mopar brand spray in the owners manual

White lithium grease on the rollers and slides. They recommend Mopar brand spray in the owners manual. Wipe off any excess

I'd consider taking it to the dealer initially as mine is smooth so you may have an adjustment problem. No problem using whatever Mopar recommends for lube but don't just grease it with anything not recommended in the manual. I used to use white lithium grease until I took a few doors apart and saw what it looked like a few years down the road. Only use what Mopar recommends so they can't blame you for the issue.

Np. They're supposed to grease all pivot points and slides at every change but you know how that goes.

Also, dont forget about your power seats

Thanks for the clarification.

Thanks for the clarification.

Np. I think what he is talking about though isnt the track or wheels. I think it's the initial opening when the bug screen pops up. Took me some getting used to

Fyi, I came across a really good thread on here about the sunroof drain spouts and their grommets. Sounds like something all new owners should check out. I did an inspection on mine today and they are seated properly but I had no clue they were even there. Lol
