  • My sunroof was broken so I tried to tackle it myself instead of going to the dealer. This video also applies to a Golf 7, because the mechanisms are the same.

    How did you remove the glass ? I have a problem with the roof not opening but I don’t know how to access the glass bolts itself

      There are 4 bolts on the inside of the cabin, the other the are at the back of the glass panel which can only be accessed in the ventilation mode/ fully open

    I noticed your air deflector is not operational in the final shot. I’m looking to replace my air deflector. Is it a simple process?

      I didn't attach it, because if the roof didn't work I would have to take it of again. You can easily replace it, it's a case of opening the roof and removing two bolts, goodluck

      Yes the problem with the lift mech. I had to reposition the little gates.
      How do I remove the front panel that runs around the roof? It’s leaking under it.. can’t see that on your video

      I live in the Netherlands. But this wasn't a days worth of work in the video. I've spread the work in 5 days so around 13 hours (including me trying to figure out how to remove everything. But if I can you can do it as well ;)

      Forgot to film that part, my bad. Basically it has 6 screws, when it's in ventilation mode you can access the screws in the back. The other four can be removed from inside, hope this helps

      @@hamzahussain5129 it could be that the sunroof is too close to the frame. When riding over a bump the sunroof and frame collide. The way i did it is by putting the screws in so that the sunroof panel is at its highest point. Then close it an check where you need to adjust it

    Why am I listening to two separate audio tracks if you talking? You should choose one and not re-record yourself talking through the video while still playing audio from the original video.
