Yep I did check, even stripped motor apart again after discussing with electrical engineer at work who explained how the motor worked. Not being done until end of May.

Audi have determined that the Hydraulic Motor has failed as the commutators are not connecting to the motor spindle to make contact. I did try and clean the slides but it still wouldn't slide down far enough. Usually £500 to replace, Audi are doing it for £250 due it not being 4 years old and...

Booked in at the stealers on 24th. See what they say.

No worries, having said that, either first thing Friday ot the Monday would work better if you are free. Otherwise can arrange another time. Thanks again.

Hi Andy, Thanks for the link and the offer. This weekend isn't going to work I'm afraid. Are you available Bank Holiday Friday or the Monday? Tris

OK will try and get another reading. Opened and closed roof manually a couple of times in succession to see if that would help, but still nothing. Should the ignition be on when doing this?

Yeah I know!!!! Where is the roof module located? Or is that all part of the pump which is where I checked the power before when I disconnected it? Is there anywhere else I should check power (ie. relays) The roof hasn't had much use really and car has only done 22k. Are the roof modules...

Not sure, garage wouldn't do a 2nd reading for free! Will have to pay £45 to find out. Then make a decision on how to proceed and whether I get Audi or the local garage to do it.

Hi, I had the codes cleared yesterday but it still did the same thing, only lifting abit at the front. Today I opened the roof manually, quite easy when you've done it once. Locked storage compartment and tried it again automatically, windows went down and storage box popped open but didn't...

Will try the power again with it connected to the motor. I disconnected the loom with ignition off and then turned on to check for +ve and -ve feeds. Codes are cleared but haven't checked if they reappear. Roof still wouldn't work once they were cleared. How do I get it back in sync? It failed...

Hi Krumz, Disconnected the Red & Black wire connector on the motor and started car, got a friend to activate the roof switch while I was using the multi meter. I got no voltage in either direction. Could it be a relay? Checked fuse in drivers side compartment all OK. The oil reservoir on the...

No I haven't, will this assist?

OK Cool, thanks. Will give it a go tomorrow. Once its working again do I need to manually lower it or should it operate as normal. I'll let you know how i get on. :)

Also will the sync/ sensors be out as the roof was manually raised if I try to lower it via the switch in the cabin? Thanks again.

Thanks for the reply. Do I need to get a friend to activate the roof switch while I am testing with the multi meter, or is there always a 12v supply? If I cant hear anything from the motor and there seems to be power I'll clean the contacts. do I need to have the roof in open position before I...
