Cabriolet roof trouble

Having some minor issue with the soft top, when opening the top, towards the end of the open when everything is closing up it gets stuck just before the end of the open process, I have to reverse the lid motion- as if I were going to close the top, then when I pull the switch back to open the top the rear lid closes properly.

It only does this when opening the top for the first time after a day or two, once I do this reverse thingi, it will open and close properly every time without an issue, its like the reverse fix loosens it up then its all good. Then after a day or two of not using the top It will get stuck in the same position again.

Fluid is full battery is full... headliner isn't sagging... any ideas?

Sorry I have no clue but sounds like something is misaligned/losing power or psi. Id take it in and have it serviced. Also please keep us informed once you find out the issues. I to have a cabriolet and if there are known issues or something I need to keep an eye out for. much appreciated

Lubricant needed? Motor going? My wife's top has worked flawlessly so far -- knock on eucalyptus! ;-) 2011 Carrera S Cab.

Bogut ... or Dellavadova? I'm in the SF Bay Area so of course we hope the Warriors prevail in the NBA finals.

"My boys" are the Portland Trailblazers, where I was born & bred, and they're already out due to major injuries but no worries. They've had a much better track record since the Drexler years so I'm OK.
