Quote from independent was over £2k to replay frame. Took it to Skoda and they confirmed Bent frame. But also there had been poor work done previously as roof lining and other parts were not correctly fitted. I was aware sun blind missing at purchase but not of additional damage. Skoda replaced frame and several other bits and got the quote down to almost same as independent. Roof was not leaking so I could have left it shut but as I would take a big hit selling with defective roof and hope to keep the car long term I had the work done this week.

1st independent diagnosis bent frame. Skoda main dealer tomorrow

thanks - assume gears not available to purchase? Maybe ebay or scrap ones?

2014 Superb estate panoramic sunroof issue. I tried opening it during the cold weather and it made a scary crunching sound and since won't operate correctly. First time was opening on Tilt and it made the same noise as I closed it. Noise from front right.I think maybe there was ice in the mechanism and something either broke or pulled out of alignment. Closes crooked, does not slide open to predefined place or fully, tilts open crooked (one side higher than the other) and can only be closed using the tilt-down close and slide back close both being operated at the same time. Doesn't slide all the way back to close. Also makes a crunching noise at the beginning of the slide open. Took 30 minutes to close the other day so don't really want to open to take photos unless I'm pretty sure of a fix. Skoda and independant garage suck air through their teeth and say no available parts probably whole new sunroof. I think either a simple part in the mechanism has broken / slipped and the roof needs reseating on runners and resetting. Any suggestions / assistance appreciated.

Had my 2014 Superb 170TDi Elegance 4x4 estate for just over a year and now that the warranty has expired I've broken it! I have found these forums very helpful to date giving me plenty of useful tips. However, I haven't found an example of my problem, so have decided to post. I'll try and post in teh relevant Forum. Thanks for all the advice this far.
