Sounds like an aftermarket sunroof?

You can't just push open or close a stock EG5 sunroof by hand alone, you need to twist a screwdriver into a crank slot on the roof directly above the middle of the windscreen. That’s if the powers out or not connected...

Clutch - just rev to 4000RPMs and drop the clutch, see if there’s any slipping.

That noise might be worn brake pads on rotors, check em out and see if there’s metal on metal..

Stock Civic clutches are light anyway but aren’t to costly to fix..

Where do you like?

Hi,

First off, thanks for the replys.

As far as im aware, the sunroof is original, but the glass and seal has just been replaced. The electrics were activly trying to open the roof when i basically gave it a little nudge, but it wouldnt open by its self..

I'll see if i can take it for another test drive, and check out the clutch, and try do that with the clutch.

The noise only seemed to happen when I depress the clutch, not whilst braking, I thought this could indicate possible bearings issue relating to the clutch? - Really have NFI what im talking about, but as its not making the sound whilst braking, I thought that would have ruled out brakes?

I'm assuming that you mean where do I live? If so, I'm up in Darwin - And theres basically bugger all in Darwin thats decent.

Also, the car had a short throw shifter on it, is it easy to take these off, and go back to stock? It feels very strange, to me, which I don't like.

Thanks again all for the replies.
