My front sun shade was making some terrible noises, so I attempt to fix it. Unfortunately, I was unsucessful, Let me know in the comments what I need to do to fix it.
Hi @AIR_FUEL_SPARK - I have exactly this same problem since last week with my MY2011 Jaguar XJ. Any luck or further insights from here or other forums. Like you - I am enthusiastic to get this fixed. I haven;t started dismantling anything as yet but your video as above is a massive help as a starter. Just that I do not want to start dismantling without a prior knowlegde that something can be done/fixed....
While the gear is turning in one direction, try to block it with a screwdriver or something similar. When it stops, replace both screws that hold the motor.
I have the same problem with my front sunshade. Tried the „easy fix“ wirh the white plug in the front… didn’t work. My motor is also only turning in one direction
