by the way, I went to Auburn in the 80's. I had this problem with my 87 turbo SAAB, and it was the teeth on the sunroof motor that had gotten rubbed smooth because there was so much crap in the sunroof track. Check the track above for debris. I found a used motor on Ebay, and pulled both tracks out and cleaned each of the screw wrapped tracks. It worked...but trust me, look at the motor first. Let me know what you find.
