Automatic mode, which opens or closes the sunroof completely, is triggered by pressing and holding the switch in slide OPEN and close position. If the switch is moved towards Lift when the sunroof is open, the roof moves automatically to the end position Lift open. Hi, I recently got my driver side door handle changed on my 2008 MINI R56.
