Just an update.
I have been to two wreckers to get second hand glass (and frame) and they have both been in various stages of rust.
Its just four screws that hold the sunroof in, so at the most its a half hour job to replace .(Ripoff dealer wanted to charge me $800 labour to fit sunroof)
New glass assembly, including frame, is $1000 from Honda.
Hi guys I also have a 2008 Lux Navi and have noticed rust in the frame of the sunroof, now from memory on the brochure it says that a vehicle has 6 years rust warranty but it does not specify weather it is on the whole car or just pannel's and chassis ect... Do I have to be the first owner?
The Lux came with sunroof from the factory. Since it is not an aftermarket or dealer addition, it should be considered part of the car. Get yours replaced ASAP.
Interesting, i thought sunroof frame is stainless steel covered and won't rust for even 10yrs of the age of the car... does the rust is normal in any other cars sunroof frame too..
I did not notice my rust until the car was 8 years old. Had I known it was a problem I would have caught it before the 6 years rust warrantee had expired. Because I am sure the rust would have been there at 6 years.
Anyhow it's all fixed now. I got a second hand good glass with no rust for $300 and about one hour to fit it.
