Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi just joined and cannot find the thread i am certain i have read on here at some stage. Someone suggested drilling a hole big enough to squirt lubricant into ( straw size ) in the clear plastic tubes that are either side of the targa roof motors located behind the carpeted trim panel that houses the hex keys which would be used if motors fail. My question is has anyone tried it? thanks in anticipation

POST 2Original post

I'd just keep all the moving parts you can access lubricated.

POST 3Original post

I do the same occasional lubrication Job . I also did the mentioned drill a small hole etc portion, but only on the Driver Side, as I found on mine , that it was pretty impossible to get enough access to drill on the passenger Side.With that been said, not sure if this actually made a positive impact.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

thanks 951 and Behle i think i will have to stick to just doing the bits i can reach and see as its to risky to mess up. Think the Sailkote or Mclube some have mentioned sounds like a good idea
