Talk to these guys:   http://www.carhood.com/

 

I do not think that they actually carry out roof repairs, however, I am sure that they can recommend someone close to you.

 

I could easily repair this issue for you however I am 500 miles away in North East Scotland.

I am fairly good at fault finding and fixing things. I service and repair power tools for a living. What do you think the best place for me to start looking?

As Zmanalex said, it may be a simple issue, so forgive my daft question, but have you released the manual latch? It is located just above the rear view mirror,

So to update so far. yes I have released the lock near the rear view mirror.

When I press the open button the windows go down, the passenger seat back rest moves forward and the roof with the rear  glass in unlocks and then nothing else happens.

I am sorry to hear about your friend's Dad.

 

If you are not handy with the tools or a multimeter I would advise taking the car to a roof specialist.

 

The issue may be something quite simple or perhaps more complex and expensive.

 

Where are you based?

I am based in Beckenham in Kent

Your bank balance would be a good starting point.

 

Seriously, have a search, as this subject has been covered many times.

 

Was the roof working when you bought the car?

no the roof was not working when I got the car. the car belonged to my friends dad who now has past away so I can't even ask him.

Hi,

I have just got my self a 350z on a 07 plate. I seem to have a problem with the electric roof. I have the engine running foot on the brake, press the rood down button and the windows go down I can hear the lock releasing on the roof and that is it nothing else happens. Can any one shed some light on what the first things I should look at.

Thank you

Lee
