ARR Sunroof problems!!!!
My 300SD sunroof used to work perfectaly but before i owned my car, my dad left the sunroof button on close position so it made a horrid buzzing noise finding out the sunroof button was stuck on the open position i push the open button and the buzzing stopped and i decided to test the sunroof and now opens with ease but closes like Cr@P , when i push the close button it makes a buzzing noise in the trunk location and the sunroof wont close i have to help it to close sometimes it wont budge but sometimes it dose what could be wrong with it???

well, it may just need to be adjusted. I just figured it out on mine yesterday. If you take out the left trunk matting (you'll also have to remove the left inside tail light assy, very easy) the motor is up in the back corner behind the trunk hinge. There should be a little hole and a red manual adjustment now or bolt head. I'm not sure which style the 84 has. I think it is the same as mine. Be hind that on the shaft at it's base is a nut. The nut controls the adjustment. Try tightening it a half a turn at a time clock wise to tighten it up. It may just be that your motor is out of adjustment.
Also, if you haven't already, clean out the tracks and lube them. You can search the forum and find many posts about sunroof issues on the w126. You should also check to see that the pop up wind deflector is not causing it to jam up when closing. I adjusted mine when I stumbled into the motor yesterday and now it works perfectly. I too had been having to "help" it close before now. Cheers!
