New to me IS250 - Sunroof repair questions
Hi folks,
So i finally did it, I went and bought a 2006 Is250 Sport and my god do I love it even with the fuel economy and heavy road tax.
I think I got a good deal. Few minor issues I want to sort out on my own and some my mechanic is going to deal with.
It feels amazing on the road. Drives great. Sounds great and Feels great. The tech for a 2006 is honestly blowing my mind.
The sunroof has two issues
1: The auto wind deflector - one of the clips/brackets that connect it to the rails is broken.. is it possible to get these? Or do I need a new wind deflector?
2: When closing the sunroof somewhat judders, it does close just not smoothly. And the previous owner did say it sometimes needs assistance. Anyone any experience with these?
The other concern which I have read up on and have since ordered a Mini VCI to diagnose is that I got the Check VCS, Check engine and trac off lights yesterday morning on the way to work. Checked a few things like the fuel cap, coolant, MAF and then disconnected the battery for 10 minutes and they have not come back on since.

You might need to lubricate the track the sunroof rides in.
