I feel like I'm constantly posting problems, so apologies for that.
I've just picked my 2 up from the garage and one other minor issue I have is that the roof doesn't collapse all that readily. I have to work it flat before I can click it into position.
I'm guessing the roof mechanism is either sticking or rusting though the roof itself doesn't leak.
Is there anything I can do to 'free' it up??

Mr. T recommends only putting the roof down in warm temperatures. You could try putting the heater on full blast for a while and trying again.
Hey, don't worry about asking too many questions, there's no such thing as too many s:) :) s:)
It's quite normal for the roof to be stiff in cold weather, mine is exactly the same, and needs a gentle push first on the glass and then the top of the roof to persuade it in. Just be gentle and careful, they tend to crack with age on the sides where the fold.
In cold temperatures(under4 C I think) the roof needs to be warmed up before its dropped down, 10 minutes with the blowers full on usually does it.
Also depends how well the roof has been treated in the past, maybe a good clean and treatment is needed.
As for the "problems" don`t worry we all did it when we first got our 2`s s:mrgreen: :mrgreen: s:mrgreen:
Thanks for not being annoyed. [emoji846]
It does need a good clean and maybe treating or a bit of a recolour too...I'm not sure that my Autoglym Bumpercare will be man enough for the task ahead.

Also be careful when encouraging the rear glass to flatten down as if you break the glass you are likely to need a new roof s:( :( s:(

Look up Renovo cleaner plus renovator for vinyl roofs.
Brings it up better than anything else I've ever tried.
They have their own Web page.
As others have said you MUST warm the roof up in winter before trying to lower.
