Replacing my sunroof with oem new parts.
Current one was binding on the passenger side.
Besides the track assembly, motor and outer gasket, is there anything I should replace or do preventively?

Already dropped the Headliner to inspect and absolutely love German engineering!

If German engineering is so good, why do you need a new sunroof on an 8yo car?
Because instead of reading the workshop manual my mechanic brother insisted on helping and forced it closed which cracked the frame instead of taking it apart to clean the track...
But I was referring to the overall build of the vehicle, how the body parts interlock, and general assembly. Own a jeep grand cherokee and there are lots of ignorant part designs in comparison.
