For the roof I would suggest contacting Mike @Ducklakeview, only problem is that he's in Blackpool. But, for the money he can save you would be worth the trip.

Mike is a magician. He fixes and relocates the roof motor without removing the roof. Don't think a roof motor has beaten him yet.
He says it can be done yourself. You just need to be a left-handed contortionist.
As Tony said, well worth a visit to get it sorted.

But a stones throw... I've had people from Denmark and Germany to get theirs done
Blackpool? Where did that come from Tony? Based in Earlestown WA12, 10 sec walk from main line station.

Sorry Mike, my bad, I was under the impression that's where you at.

to the forum from me too in Staffordshire.Yep , i can confirm that Mike is definitely a contortionist as removing the motor requires some proper skills but he definitely know what he is doing.
Not the same can be said for the “ expert technician “at BMW where I took my car few years ago to have the same problem resolved. Four days and £ 1,200 later, look how they have “ expertly “ solved the water ingress problem.
Silicon and electrical tape. Shocking !
If you have the misfortune of experiencing roof motor failure take the trip up north.It is well worth it!
