Try resetting it by pressing/holding up(tilt) for at least 15 sec+.

I had to do this after the dealer did a software update. I had to press and hold the tilt button and let the sunroof do the whole reset process. It took a little more than 15 seconds.

On my 2011 550xi, when I pressed the tilt button the sun roof would tilt open and pressing it again would make it close. Now I have a 2012 550i and when I press the tilt button to make the sunroof close it does nothing. Anyone have a clue as to why this is? thanks

I just came back from the dealer and noticed my sunroof one-touch auto open/close and tilt were not working properly. I could still hold the switch to open/close but one-touch was not working. The dealer worked on the A/C and also aimed the headlights.

Found this thread which saved me a return trip to the dealer. I wanted to clarify that the engine has to be running for the re-initialization to work. As stated earlier, I pushed the tilt button up for approximately 15 seconds and continued to hold it while the sunroof fully opened, closed, and then the shade closed. Once that sequence was completed, all functions were back to normal.

Thanks guys!
