If the "mechanic" has already broken the plastic 17mm nut off of the drive, you can turn the smaller metal nut inside, or use vise-grips.

On my 1995 E300 diesel I had the same problem, the sunroof was not all the way closed (down slightly in the rear). I was able to follow this tip to get it closed.
When I first picked up the car last week the sunroof would open and close but not tilt. No biggie. Then I was driving around with it open and it started to make this crazy squealing noise which I narrowed down to the motor assembly. I was able to close it (not completely) and the noise stopped. Then I could move it by hand when also operating the switch and it made a faint humming noise like it wanted to work.
Any clues as to what my problem is? Switch? Motor? Cable?
