Sun Roof Not Working

A few weeks ago I tried out my sun roof and it reluctantly worked after a couple of tries, now when I try and open it the windows go down but nothing else happens, does anyone have any ideas could it be the motor and is it an expensive repair?

It’s could be anything from a faulty sensor/micro switch to a broken wire, you would be better off trying a fault code scanner on it or taking it to your local garage for a diagnosis.

Yes I'll probably do that, I've just mov3d house so I need to find a local BMW specialist....

Well I have found out today that it is the pump and motor that have gone due to water ingress and the cost of a replacement part is over 2.6K, this is from a local specialist as well not a dealer.
I have found the part I need on ebay for just under 1k. However, I was wondering if the motor/pump used in another bmw model would fit as they seem much cheaper
