Default Sunroof

when I close the sunroof blind it doesn’t fully close, leaving a small gap. Only noticed last night is this normal?

There is a reset procedure for this, I did see it mentioned some years ago either on this forum or the GB one, I think it may be in the handbook but not sure.
Just found this , I did not put my finger in the gap but used something else.

If my car is not used for a while I use a battery conditioner, a CTEK, it prolongs the life of the battery, my car is 6 1/2 years old now, fingers crossed all seems well.

Note with the reset procedure you really do need to hold the forward/close button in for a long time. (Until it has fully opened and closed again before releasing.) I found it quite uncomfortable to hold my hand up for that length of time, but it has always worked on my 2010 X351.
