Default haha, sorry man, but thats pretty funny.

I don't see what it could be except that when you shift its gotta be hittin somethin electronic that moves the sunroof. Hey, well, I know that advice is like no help, but thats all I can come up with. Sorry. Good luck gettin it fixed

Default Pretty common to have the roof open unexpectedly. Pull the switch.....

and clean it, then reinstall. This was my dealers fix for the problem. Somebody here also soaked it in WD40, which apparently cured the chronic problem he was having.
