Well i tried to but it didn't show my specific problem...the glass opens and closes perfect (What the hell is ACS? i know what it does but couldn't find it in my manual??) but the glass doesn't close flush with the roof and when i drive thru the touchless car wash i have to hold the glass up to seal it, is there an adjustment, I guess a new seal couldn't hurt but i've heard those are expensive :B thanks in advance !!

It sounds like you have an ASC aftermarket moonroof - that's what the "ASC" is all about. When you press that button and it turns red, it allows the moonroof to stay open instead of automatically closing when you turn off the car.

Adjustment is easy. You have to pop off the plastic "cover" on each side, then you'll be able to get to the adjustment screws. They're #20 torx screws, and there are several adjustments on both sides front and rear, for both up/down and forward/back adjustment.

Well if it is aftermarket it's a very clean Stock appearing install but i don't see any covers or even an access cover, can you shine some more light me (hehe)and should i take pic's to help out? Thanks John:D

If it says ASC on one of the buttons it's definitely an ASC aftermarket. I'll see if I can get some pics tomorrow, though my camera doesn't take closeups very well.

Here's a pic with the cover popped off. Just pop the plastic cover off from the front on each side and you'll see all the torx adjustment screws up inside. There are 2 for the front and 2 for the rear on each side. Since one adjustment always affects the others, you may have to adjust it a few times to get it perfect.
