When we had passengers in the rear of the car during the recent hot spell it soon became obvious that the blind for the rear part of the sunroof was missing. The car is a 10 plate HSE which I've only had just over a month. I never noticed this while looking the car over before buying it. I contacted the dealer who I bought the car off, suggesting that the blind could have been omitted during manufacture. His reply was that he believed some models were built without a rear blind, but that he would investigate and get back to me, still waiting a week later.

My understanding is that all models with the panoramic sunroof should have two blinds, but I could well be wrong. Do any members know or have had a similar problem?

All the ones I've seen with a sunroof have both front and rear blinds.
Sounds like dealer may be speaking with forked tongue as I think it unlikely that only a front blind would be supplied.

all i have seen had the blind

maybe removed due to a possible rattle by previous owner Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Just been out to check as I couldn't remember seeing one in mine "I only get to sit in the drivers seat" and yes! My 2010 HSE has one fitted in the rear too.

Hope you get it sorted

is it possable it may be stuck down through lack of use  rainy-city

dealer is talking out of their bumhole, ALL come with 2 blinds. BUT before you go and kick him in the gentlemans area I would nip back to your car and make sure that the rear blind hasnt simply been retracted as it is just like the front blind and can be open and closed.  Now - 2017 BMW X3 M Sport Carbon Black

Thanks for all your replies. When I first saw it missing I did recheck to make sure I wasn't mistaken.
