Sorry guys for making a SH*$ sandwich, just wanted to inject a small joke about the memory thing. Glad most of you got it.

The snow memory is related to the PSM/ABS sensors in the wheels. If they detect 4 different wheel speeds, it tells the sensors there is snow on the ground and the sun roof will also open.....

Guys we have a SOLUTION. My sunroof motor was bad. Apparently the memory is contained in the motor and now everything works great after replacing the motor.......

Great! Did that solve any issues with the 1-touch open close feature? Sometime when closing my sunroof with 1-touch it will close halfway then open again.

Glad you got it fixed. Sounds like it was the same thing as mine. Now, about that rain sensor.....

Did you replace it yourself or have it done at a shop? Just curious how easy (or hard) it is to do in case I have this same problem in the future.
