e92 Sunroof (re)calibration

Sunroof has (again) decided to 'park' about 1/2 inch below flush with the roof.

I know there is a way to re-zero it back to parking flush with the roof-line - but can't remember how !!

I thought it was simply motoring the sunroof fully open, then shut, then fully tilted, then shut but that's not doing the trick.

Can anyone renind me the correct procedure ?

Thanks

quick search turned up this......

What you do is you get into your car, put your fob in the slot and turn the car ON (ie don't start it - but push the start button with your foot OFF the break/clutch)

Now, push and HOLD the sunroof button up (vent position). After about 15-20 seconds, the sunroof will vent. CONTINUE HOLDING THE BUTTON UP. After anouther couple of seconds, 15 or so (could feel long, but keep holding) , the sunroof will close, the open completely, then close completely.

Once the sunroof has closed completely, the proccess is over. It's important that you do not let go of that button while the proccess is happening.

Hope it helps

I wished this worked for windows not going all the way up. After 4 visits to BMW and getting "that's the best we can do" when one is clearly not sitting high enough causing excessive wind noise and water getting in when I wash it...
