My sunroof is working fine in my 124 but I would like to keep it that way. Can
the the sunroof actually be removed by a mere mortal and relubed with
Gleitpaste? I've repaired the roof in my 123 and it works wonderfully. Is
preventative maintenance something I can do without fear of screwing something
up on my 124 sunroof?

I got really really pissed today. I flipped someone off and my daughter's
former junior high teacher saw me, and I think for a moment thought I was
flipping him off.
I had 15 minutes to get paperwork to a place 15 minutes from my office. I
left about the time the junior high got out.
Got down by the junior high, and this IDIOT in front of me (I have no idea
who he was, but the "wave" from the music teacher told me he was also a
teacher) FREEKIN' STOPPED in front of the school, right blinker on. He then
proceeded to wave FOUR school busses out. Bear in mind that this is a four
lane road, so the busses could only move when there was no traffic coming
from the north or from the inside lane headed north.
After bus one, I hit the ruptured duck horn on my 240D and screamed out the
window, 'Move your damn ass." ... No response. I hit my horn again. No
response.
If only I'd had a 9 mm (this coming from an anti-gun liberal!)
Anyway, after four busses and a good four minutes, the guy turned right,
clearing the lane. I floored my 240D (yea, I know, laugh) and extended left
hand, middle finger, out of the window.
At that point, my daughter's junior high (she is now a high school senior)
band teacher made contact with me. I ... well, sort of ... waved back.
I will have to give Matt a phone call tomorrow to explain.
Oh, I got the paperwork there with about 3 minutes to spare ... after
following a Parker Wagon down the highway (only farm country folks will
understand what a Parker Wagon is).
