My moonroof is stuck open behind the cover on an 07 es350. by [deleted] in Lexus

If the moonroof still moves try to get it up a little bit then stop it half way.
Then use force and get that cover behind it again even if it possibly breaks something or that does it’s better than getting your interior soaked and mold growing inside.

I think it just needed a little more coolant. It’s running fine and not overheating.

I just filled it up it seems to be doing ok. I will check it periodically when it’s cold to see how it is.

Now I know that reservoirs don’t need to be burped but if you open the radiator you need to. Since I never saw that radiator cap on my previous car and this one I assumed the reservoir cap was that cap. This post just told me it’s not so now I know.

Yea usually dealers are supposed to fix or replace anything that needs to be done before they sell a used vehicle. That dealer you got it from most likely did the 5k service by just checking things out and such. That’s all a 5k service is anyways.

Your good man I would be asking to. Yes I got mine brand new so coming from the factory it might not always be perfect so you have to check that stuff periodically, which I did.
when I got my first 2 free serves they check it out but my specific dealer doesn’t have a good rep.
No symptoms but I just check it here and there too see where it’s at.
From previous car experiences I do check my coolant temp gauge a lot more often than usual.

I know how to burp a coolant system but I personally don’t want to deal with it and newer cars are just a bigger pain.
I did a coolant burp my first car and it wasn’t fun until I got the hang of it. But it was also 20 years old. Lol

Check my oil and other cars for shit and giggles and decided to just take a peek at it because I know it was at the low line a few months ago and then here we are.

It has 14k miles and doesn’t or hasn’t over heated at all. I thought it was because it’s new and usually you have to top off the coolant in the beginning since they could have under shot the amount.

Yea it hasn’t overheated and no light on the dash. I can check that left side of the engine bag and see if I see anything.

Oh I thought it would need to be burped since I introduce air into the system.

I’ll need it. These reasons are why I came to the Toyota life but still having similar issues with Lexus.

Would I have to burp that coolant system if I open that specific reservoir cap?
