Today the sunroof on my G stopped working, it will move back and forth between a fully opened and a 1/3 closed position, but will not close completely.

Has anybody had this problem? Is there an easy fix or will I have to take it into the dealer?

In other news got my 18" snow tires put on, haven't had a chance to use them in the snow yet, but they handle decently considering.

There is a bulletin on the Sunroof. I copied and pasted it here but it maybe kind of hard to read since I can't scan it. I have it in PDF format.

SUNROOF INOPERATIVE
APPLIED VEHICLE: All 2003-04 G35 Coupe (CV35)
All 2003-04 FX35 and FX45 (S50)

The sunroof doesn’t close or open automatically using the slide switch and/or tilt switch.

ACTION:
“Reset” the Sunroof memory.
•Generally, resetting the Sunroof memory will resolve the incident.
•Usually, there is no need to replace the Sunroof Motor.
You will also need to reset the sunroof memory if any one of the following conditions has occurred:
•Battery removed or battery cable(s) disconnected while sunroof is operating or within 5 seconds after the
sunroof movement has stopped.
•Sunroof motor is replaced.
•Sunroof emergency/manual operation procedure is used.
•Interruption during the Sunroof memory resetting process.

See the SERVICE PROCEDURE (page 2) for the Sunroof memory reset procedure.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
•If only the Sunroof memory needs resetting, replacing the sunroof motor will do no good (won't fix the
incident).
•In cases of a Sunroof “open/close” incident, do not replace the sunroof motor first. Perform the SERVICE
PROCEDURE below.

SERVICE PROCEDURE
Reset the Sunroof memory as follows:
NOTE: You’ll use the “tilt-open” function of the Sunroof TILT Switch (see Figure 1) for both steps below.
Figure 1
2. Within 5 seconds after the Sunroof tilts closed: Release the TILT switch. Then Press and hold the TILT
switch again in the “tilt-open” position until the Sunroof does all of the following (in the order shown):
a. Slides completely open,
b. Slides completely closed,
c. Tilts fully open,
d. Finally, tilts fully closed.
3. Release the tilt switch. The Sunroof memory is now reset.
4. Check the Sunroof slide and tilt switches for proper operation.
1. Press and hold the Sunroof TILT switch in the
“tilt-open” position (see Figure 1) until the
Sunroof does all of the following (in the order
shown):
a. Moves in small increments (a few inches at a
time) to the fully closed position.
•This movement will occur if the sunroof
is in the open position.
•If the sunroof is in the closed position,
this movement will not occur.
b. Tilts UP fully,
c. Finally, tilts DOWN into the closed position.

Does this specific fix apply to my problem? I am unable to close the sunroof, thus will be unable to 'reset' the memory.

"The sunroof doesn’t close or open automatically using the slide switch and/or tilt switch." --It would but I believe its stuck. This seems to be a different issue.

My tires are Wintersport M3's

 

That's what happened to my g35. I took into service and all they did was reset the memory.

Excellent advice, my sunroof problem has been resolved.
