Hey,
So I've spec'd pano roof as have always had just to brighten interior. On previous cars have been fixed (Range Rover) so never opened and don't think I will in the Macan either as never like the noise of sunroofs open.
I've seen a few posts here about leaks and drain issues etc - so my question is better to just never open (which I'm happy to do) or better to open occasionally to keep things working properly?
Not sure!
Pano Roof Questions
Have you done any 'drain service' over this 5 years period?
It’s designed to be opened, there’s even a button on the inside to do it, so doubt it will make much difference whether you open it or not
Personally I’ve always had sunroofs and never had one leak (including the Macan so far) so I don’t really worry about it - life’s too short…

Quite agree. My Turbo is now 9 years old - never had a sunroof leak.Jon A wrote: ↑Mon May 08, 2023 1:26 pm It’s designed to be opened, there’s even a button on the inside to do it, so doubt it will make much difference whether you open it or not

I'm going out on a limb now but.... had the Pano Roof now for 3 months (not the sunniest, true) but haven't felt the car to be a "brighter" place for it! Opening/closing the blind doesn't greatly affect it. I reckon it you want lighter, pebble leather is the place for your money. Taking over....

Those in the rear seats would benefit most, but then it does reduce headroom.
