Sunroof problems
So over the weekend my sunroof was acting weird. It no longer wants to open all the way when I press the button. Instead it inches open and I have to keep pressing the button to inch it all the way open/close. Could this be an electrical issue or is there a way to program the sunroof like there is for the windows?
You may want to try the sunroof relearn trick.
Make sure the switch is slid to the closed position
hold the tilt up button for 5 seconds until sunroof is completely tilted up.
Hold the sunroof tilt down position button closed until the sunroof is completely closed and HOLD for another 5 seconds. (copied from another thread)
Also when it is fully open you also may want to lubricate the tracks.

I had some weird issues with my sunroof not closing. It turned out that accordion material on the side came loose and was jamming the track.
Susie,
Just something the check make sure nothing is obstructing the track at any point since it can cause some strange behavior.
As far as lubricating, just look where there are any moving parts and squirt a little white lithium grease in there. I got it in a spray bottle like WD-40 comes in. The straw helps to get in those small places. I got mine at Lowe's but I'm sure you can get at any auto parts store or home improvement store.

I only use the pano-roof a few times a year. I get some shuttering on occasion so I only operate it to verify it still works.
The same holds true with entry/exit steering wheel feature, I just turn it off and don't use it to avoid future repair costs.
Like I said before and I'm not holding my breath, the day Toyota produces a car with similar looks and performance I'll be all over it.
