350z 2007 roadster roof

[Jack Fisher]

Might be a tad late to the party but here is My clip of my roof operating up until that last part where the compartment shuts the roof in and it leaves a little gap, not shutting completely. The manual workaround is that I’ve been pushing the compartment lid down that rest of the way and I just cannot figure out what it could be

Mine does that if the roof is cold, works perfectly if the sun has been on it., I think the roof material doesn't fold well if its not pliable enough.

 

I've had mine 10 years and have always just leant over and lightly pressed on the lid as required and its not caused any issues in all that time.

 

I try not to operate the roof until either the sun or the heater have softened it up.
