Sunroof & Blind Action

A question for anyone who has a sunroof.
How far does your sunroof blind open when you tilt the sunroof?

The reason I ask is mine use to open half way when I selected tilt, but since I had my battery replaced it only opens around 3 inches or so.
I have tried re-calibrating it but it still does the same thing. Everything else works fine (can retract the blind all the way and tilt and slide the sunroof etc) with no obvious noises.

I searched the internet and found someone referring to an old E39 saying that the blind only retracted 3 or so inches if you tilted the sunroof, so I just wanted to know what is happening with yours on the X3.

Thanks.

Thanks cSurf, I guess what it was doing before was wrong (even though I quite liked it going back half way).
Unless anyone else says otherwise, then I will take it as being normal.

3-4 inches on my `11 as well. For what it's worth, 2-3 inches on my `11 e90.
