After several month driving with c-pillar flap that would not close, I finally got up the nerve to attempt a repair.

Question 1, the roof headliner on the drivers side sits 2" below where it should be seems it is not being pulled up when the roof is closed, any thoughts on fixing this? Question 2, how reliable are the convertible roofs on these cars, should I worry / keep / change the car for a different convertible? Any feedback useful, thanks, Simon

      Headlining or side flap? Headlining may be clips' adhesive failing. Easy fix. Flap may need cord and/or clip repair, a little more complicated but doable. Either way, check swedespeed for more info. As for the second question...depends on your risk tolerance 🤣

      Checking the car this morning I found 2 of the 4 clips at the front of the rear headliner are not connected to the headliner causing it to sit 2" below the roof. On these two there are clips on the inside of the headliner but bare holes on the metal roof. All other parts inc ropes look in very good condition. What is your reccomendation to reattached the headliner to the roof? With many many thanks S.

    • @Dux96
      @Dux96 10 днів тому

      ​@@shawchicago Sounds like you lost the clip halves that attach to the metal roof. Could be worse. Order new clips and reinstall. Make sure adhesive between clip and headliner, making sure adhesive covers clip edges. Allow enough time to cure and pop headliner back in place. In your case, if the clip halves attached to the headliner are still secure, take the new clip halves that insert in the metal roof to your headliner clip halves, then pop it back in. Hopefully that makes sense.

Any idea why they may have broken in the first place? Its not the adhesive causing the break. S

    • @Dux96
      @Dux96 Місяць тому

      Most common symptom with bad HS#3 is yellow trunk compartment button won't work. HS#3 shouldn't affect roof opening, at least not immediately. I had the fault for over a year but the trunk lid started not closing after roof was folded into the trunk, so it was time to do something about it. If you're not getting any other other CRM codes to chase, try lubricating seals and joints. But need codes to figure out if it's roof pump or CRM, and probably needs calibration.

    Last time I opened my roof on my 2006 C70 it made a loud clack sound about 3/4 of the way to opening. When I went to return the roof it got about 1/4 of the way and stopped. The truck was in a vertical position and it just wouldn't go anywhere. After an hour of internet searching and trying to figure out a strategy to manually adjust the roof, I tried the button one more time and it retracted fully. I haven't opened the roof in about a year now, scared it will malfunction. The roof is quite noisy when going over bumps etc. always has been and seemingly random spots as well.

    • @Dux96
      @Dux96 6 місяців тому

      Check usual suspects: lock brace may be broken, clean and lube roof seals and arms, and try to get access to Vida to scan for codes, especially for hall sensors. But the clack sound may have been a lock brace letting go and you need a replacement. Definitely find someone with Vida and run a scan.

    The headliner is the worst and most trouble prone part of the otherwise excellent hardtop convertible system. From the weak adhesive the inevitably fails right to the plastic tabs on the wings that will inevitably crack. It's not stock, but I really think mechanically fastening the headliner is the best long term decision. I've heard of people using riv-nuts and just sheet metal screws.

      I made this soon after buying the C70 and I still haven't installed new headlining because I've been working on other mods. I have a better understanding of how it works now (sorta) and I have VIDA to set service position. I'm debating re-installing the clips or actually fastening it. Also considering adhering insulation sheets before I do for heat and accoustics. Once I get there, I plan on making a video how I did it (and the likely mistakes I'll make) since there's not much on YT how to do it.
