Removing

Note

• The trim panel of the sliding/tilting sunroof is destroyed during removal.
• The removal of the trim panel of the sliding/tilting sunroof remains when cutting up the adhesive sealant material (PUR) between the trim panel and the sliding/tilting sunroof frame.
• The -arrows -identify the position of the adhesive sealant material.

• Protect the surface of the panoramic window -2- in the vicinity of the trim panel of the sliding/tilting sunroof -1- with masking tape.

• Mark the surface of the trim panel with a sharp tool according to the following specifications:
  • -a- = 10 mm Marking parallel to inside edge of the trim panel.
  • -b- = 10 mm Marking parallel to front edge of the trim panel.
  • -c- = 10 mm Marking parallel to rear edge of the trim panel.

• Using the electric cutter - SAT 1561A- and the saw blade, Ø 80 mm - V.A.G 1561/26- cut the trim panel open:
  • Along the longitudinal marks from the back to the front.
  • Along the transverse markings on the front of the trim panel (front and rear marking).
• Remove the cut-off pieces to reach the adhesive material of the trim panel.
• Using the electric cutter - SAT 1561A- and blade 207 - SAT 1561/12- cut open the adhesive material on both sides from the back to the front.
• Also cut open both adhesive material strands on the front of the trim panel.
• With help from two cable holder knobs - VAG 1351/1- with cutting thread - 357 853 999 B- insert the thread via the completed cuts in the front area, and pull alternating on both knobs until the adhesive material string is completely removed.
• Remove the trim panel of the sliding/tilting sunroof.

fitting

Note The panoramic window must be closed during installation.

Only in case of reusing an undamaged sliding/tilting sunroof.

• Prepare the sliding/tilting sunroof frame for this purpose:

• Shortly before applying the adhesive to the window, cut back the adhesive bead stuck to the window to a height of 1 to 2 mm.

Note

• In areas with tabs, as displayed in the figure, the adhesive material must be cut back until it is flush with the upper part of the tabs.
• The remaining material is required as a base for the new adhesive sealing material (PUR).

• Attach a rope -2- in the upper area of the window -1- underneath the sealing lip -3-.

Note

• Keep the rope in this position until the bonding process for the sliding/tilting sunroof frame is completed.
• The rope is used to reposition the lip in reference to the sliding/ tilting sunroof trim panel.

Continue in case of reusing an undamaged or new sliding/tilting sunroof frame.

Prepare the new trim panel for mounting. Follow these steps:

• Using fine grained sandpaper smooth the trim panel surface where the adhesive material shall be applied -arrows-.
• Using cleaning solvent - D 009 401 04- clean the trim panel surface on which the adhesive material will be applied -arrows -. Then rub edge of window dry using a lint-free cloth.
• Apply glass/paint primer - D 009 200 02- on the adhesive surface of the trim panel -arrows-.

Note

Apply the primer evenly and in one step using a fully drenched felt.

• Primer width approx. 20 mm
• Apply primer centrally in relation to adhesive bead.
• Flashing-off time, approx. 10 minutes.

Features of the adhesive bead and adhesive sealing material (PUR)

1. Bead of glue
2. Primer
3. Trim panel for sliding/tilting sunroof.
   • Distance -a- = 8 mm
   • Dimension -b- = 12 mm
   • Dimension -c- = the area for the application of the adhesive sealing material (PUR) is different depending on the sliding/ tilting sunroof trim panel perforation.

General requirements for applying the adhesive bead

• The sleeve -2- must rest flush.
• Hold the gun permanently at right angles to the parts being treated.
• The -Arrow- indicates the direction of travel.
• The diameter of the adhesive bead -1- will depend on the width of the hole in the applicator and the speed of application.

• Using the cartridge gun - SAT 5350- apply adhesive strip - D 190 MKD A3- on the surface intended for the adhesive material strip -arrows-.

Note Do not apply the adhesive material on both sides in the area marked with the height -a- = 100 mm.

fitting

• Apply the trim panel on the sliding/tilting sunroof frame.
• Push the visor -2- with the pressure tool - T20098- downwards until it is certain that the seal -1- is in contact with the bodywork -arrow-.

Note The bodywork form allows the trim panel to be centred.

• Check the installation position of the trim panel
• Firmly fix the trim panel with masking tape.
  • Minimum curing period

• In the top windscreen area -1- pull on the previously positioned rope, in order to bring the sealing lip -3- back into the correct position in relation to the sliding/tilting sunroof -2-.

Installation position of the sliding/tilting sunroof trim panel

1. - Windscreen
2. - Trim panel for sliding/tilting sunroof.
   • -Dimension "a"- = 1.5 +- 0.5 mm

   The trim panel -2- must remain above the windscreen -1-.

   • -Dimension "b"- = 3 +- 0.5 mm

   The trim panel -2- must remain underneath the seat flange of the roof -3-.

3. - Roof seat flange
