| *a | Joint | *b | Alignment Mark (Blue) |
| *c | Middle Mark | *d | Correct |
| *e | Incorrect | *f | Pinched |
| *g | Gap (raised, wavy, etc.) | - | - |
| | Front Side | - | - |
(1) Position the joint of the sliding roof weatherstrip on the rear side.
(2) Align the alignment marks (Blue) on the sliding roof weatherstrip with the middle marks on the front corners of the sliding roof panel sub-assembly and install the sliding roof weatherstrip.
HINT:
Make sure to install the lip of the sliding roof weatherstrip securely.
4. INSTALL SLIDING ROOF OR REMOVABLE ROOF PANEL SUB-ASSEMBLY
| (a) Measure the width (a) of the sliding roof weatherstrip. HINT: This measurement will be used in a later step. |
|
(b) Using a T25 "TORX" socket wrench, temporarily install the sliding roof or removable roof panel sub-assembly with the 4 screws.
(c) Perform a level check.
(1) Check the difference in level "a" between the roof panel and the upper surface of the sliding roof weatherstrip when the sliding roof or removable roof panel sub-assembly is fully closed.
HINT:
"+" represents the condition that the glass is above the panel level. "-" represents the condition that the glass is below the panel level.
Standard:
| Area | Measurement | Area | Measurement |
|---|---|---|---|
| A - A | -2.0 to 1.0 mm (-0.0787 to 0.0394 in.) | B - B | -1.0 to 2.0 mm (-0.0394 to 0.0787 in.) |
| C - C | -1.5 to 1.5 mm (-0.0591 to 0.0591 in.) | D - D | -1.0 to 1.5 mm (-0.0394 to 0.0591 in.) |
(d) Check the deformation of the sliding roof weatherstrip.
(1) With the sliding roof or removable roof panel sub-assembly in the fully closed position, measure the width (b) of the sliding roof weatherstrip and, using the width (a) measured in step a., calculate the deformation of the sliding roof weatherstrip (a - b).
Standard:
| Area | Measurement | Area | Measurement |
|---|---|---|---|
| A - A | 0.5 to 2.5 mm (0.0197 to 0.0984 in.) | B - B | 0.8 to 2.8 mm (0.0315 to 0.1102 in.) |
| C - C | 0.5 to 2.5 mm (0.0197 to 0.0984 in.) | D - D | 0.8 to 2.8 mm (0.0315 to 0.1102 in.) |
| E - E | 0.5 to 2.5 mm (0.0197 to 0.0984 in.) | - | - |
(e) After adjusting the sliding roof or removable roof panel sub-assembly, using a T25 "TORX" socket wrench, install the sliding roof or removable roof panel sub-assembly with the 4 screws.
Torque:
4.0 N·m {41 kgf·cm, 35 in·lbf}
5. CHECK FOR WATER LEAK
(a) After adjusting the sliding roof or removable roof panel sub-assembly, check for water leakage into the vehicle interior.
(b) If there are any leaks, readjust the sliding roof or removable roof panel sub-assembly.
