      They're supposed to retract.  They don't "fully" retract in the sense you no longer see them, but they're supposed to retract nearly all of the way. When I had my 92 Cutlass many years back, the sunroof didn't move properly.  I believe the drive gear was stripped, and I ended up just pulling an entire sunroof unit from a car in the junkyard and replacing it. I also had the sunroof in my 2000 Regal break, to where it wouldn't retract properly, and would only tilt.  I never looked into fixing it...but it acted similar to a power window with a broken track.

      By Jscott · Posted

      Ok. So I have 90 olds CS and I’ve been bagging my head trying to figure out why the sunroof won’t retract fully. It tilts fine. I thought it was an aftermarket sunroof but I checked the RPO code 5F3 which states it is factory. I was told that gm never made a fully retracting glass in those years. Is that true??? It’s just funny how they have a whole roof system with guide rails all the way back and only have a tilt option. Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks.

      Sunroof help…

      By Psych0matt · Posted

      Here's the part number   if it's the same unit as mine (which I think it should be) then it would be worth a try. I did have to cut the plugs from the old one and rewire them onto the new unit, but that took just a few minutes

      COOLANT LEVEL SENSOR DISCONTINUED FOR 2.8L V-6 & 3.1L W-body cars

      By Human · Posted

      I had this issue with my '95 CS convertible when I first got it in September 2018. I replaced the sensor and that solved the issue. I can't remember whether the part was OEM or aftermarket. I think I ordered it off of eBay, so it may well have been an aftermarket replacement. It was a pain to install without removing the radiator from the car. I had to use a hammer to lever it into place. I lost a fair amount of coolant in the process, so there was obviously plenty in the system.
