The roll bar will deploy normally using the up button under the roof activator flap but on occasion will only return to the level position with 3 or 4 distinct presses of the down button. The roll bar moves through about 30 degs then stops, you release the button and re-press; a further 30 degs etc until it comes to rest on the horizontal.

Normally it would retract in a single continuous movement.

The fault seems to be intermittent.

Thoughts anyone?

Thanks.

Hi Marrijon. My 2012, R230 does exactly the same. I assumed it was normal.
