My sunroof won't open/close/re-initialize
The roof of my car was covered in ice, and I accidentally hit the sunroof button. Naturally it didn't actually open because the roof was frozen shut, but now it won't open/close properly. I tried the re-initialization procedure as outlined in the FSM, but when the roof tilts up in step 1 the motor just grinds some gears and won't auto close. I have gotten it to go approximately into closed position, but I haven't tried anything further as I don't want to fry the sunroof motor or break anything else.

I finally took it apart. One of the screws had fallen out, but after replacing all 3 screws the motor still just grinds and won't close the roof properly. When I do get it closed, one side of the glass is higher than the other side, as though the two sides of the glass are out of sync somehow.

Three?! I only remember two that fell out. I thread locked them both so I should be good. Your problem doesn't sound like the motor because mine made a grinding sound too before the screw replacement and it has worked normally and quietly since... You can try a reset on the roof motor? I'm curious so let me know what happens either way.
