What is this?

Can any body identify what this motor is for ? It is located next to the power antenna.

That's the sunroof for sure! I asked the same question yesterday & became quickly enlightened thanks to everyone here.

The big bolt in the center enables you to operate the roof manually. Turn it gently and the roof should move.

That is where the sunroof cable goes, when you open the roof.

The end is pinched closed. Maybe a cable inside?
