Hello Everyone,

As I am new to the Forum and this is my first post and forgive me if it is not posted correctly.

I am the proud owner of an R230 (2003, 5 litre) and the Vario Roof has developed a problem, when I operate the roof, the boot opens about 100mm (4" to the unconverted) and then stops. I have read many posts on her and cannot find a resolution.

I have checked that the flaps in the boot lid, and neither have dropped, I have also checked that the reservoir has plenty of fluid in it, I have also checked all of the fuses, but NOT any relays.

Any suggestions would be helpful.

Kindest regards

Hi there!

Rather late with a reply I know, but firstly I hope that you got your problem resolved. Secondly, could I ask what it was that was the cause of the problem.

Many thanks and kind regards.
