Default Sunroof won't open

I just bought my 96 A4 and the sunroof won't open. When I turn the switch either way it just makes a quiet clicking noise but doesn't move? Any ideas?

sounds like you've got a burnt out sunroof motor if you're hearing a clicking noise.

if you can hear it click the motor/sun roof is stuck and might need a little assistance like using the manual tool as suggested then get it lubricated, the click if coming from the motor area means its working but just stuck (always run the engine when operating the sunroof) it give the power a good boost
