Greetings;
I have a '84 300SD and have found that the Motor/Gear Box assy. for the Sun Roof has leaked its grease! I have tried to discover a removal method with zero success...the (chain?) tube going from the assy. to the Sun Roof itself seems to have been installed with a socket and magic. I'd like to be able to remove / clean / relube the unit but can't figure it out. Help?!?

Unless a large amount of grease is comming out of the cover and/or it's making lots of noise I would not do anything with it, a small amount of seepage is not uncommon. But if you must, then let an expert tech. do the job. sunroofs can get tricky at times.

Unfortunately, most of the grease has leaked...sooooo it's off to the mechanic I go. I hate when that happens!!
