SUNROOF ONLY OPENS OVER 75 MPH AND OTHER WEIRD PROBLEMS
So I have a 99 HX, it has a sunroof, but I can only get it to open if i'm going over 75mph and one of the windows is down. It's weird I know, it will open up always, but will only slide back if i'm over 75 and the window is down. Has anyone else had a problem like this?
Also, the drivers side window works half the time. When it does work it rolls up and down with no problem which makes me think that the motor is just fine, so I have no idea what is wrong. I have checked all the wiring for loose connections but have found nothing wrong.
Another thing I have noticed, when i'm going at a constant speed, like on the highway, sometimes the car will just accelerate a little bit more, but I haven't pushed the gas down more. I don't know if a dirty fuel filter can cause that or not, or if anyone has any other ideas. Any help would be appreciated!

i cant really help you with the sunroof, but for your drivers side window... it is a possibility that the window is off the track / rail. maybe it works sometimes because it bounces back into place from road vibrations.

Re: (ekcivic9)
It's because there is positive pressure in the cabid pushing against the sunroof when you go faster. Use soem solicone spray on the rubber around the glass, also spray some lube on the tracks. This should help.

99 HX??? Sunroof???
I thought only the ex and SI came with sunroof. Maybe you have an aftermarket.

all the problems you are having are very very minor
the sunroof motor is just old/weak
the window switch on the left is probly has a loose connection or broken, get a new switch
and even if you hold your foot at the same spot on the gas it will accelerate
