How to reset the sunroof on BMW X1?

[DeValerie]

The motor vehicle needs to be started, operate through the sunroof lift button, hold the button for about 20 seconds, and the sunroof can be reset. During daily use of the vehicle sunroof, timely maintenance is required, add lubricating oil to the slide rails, clean the sunroof drainage pipes, and avoid using the sunroof on unpaved roads.

A couple of days ago, I helped my neighbor with the BMW X1 sunroof reset procedure. The steps are actually quite simple: First, turn on the ignition but don't start the engine—just power it up. Immediately locate the sunroof tilt switch and hold it down for about 15 seconds. During this time, the sunroof will automatically move a few times to complete the closing process. A clicking sound means the reset was successful! Remember to keep holding the switch throughout the entire operation; otherwise, you'll have to start over. If the sunroof still sticks after resetting, it's recommended to check the tracks for any debris like leaves. Clean the tracks with a cotton swab, as older cars tend to accumulate dust that can affect operation. Finally, test the opening and closing a few times to ensure smooth operation.
