if its anything like the sunroof in the A8, under the plastic cover around the switch, there is a 'key' that you can use to close the sunroof. You just pop the cover off the switch and there is a tool and a slot to install it and you just manually crank it closed.

Re: sun roof wont close please help

on our audi a4 1999 2.8 quattro, we had same problem.
I found somewhere on the net workaround this problem, by opening light switch dome by sunroof and cleaning and bending a bit and after putting all of that back together, everything worked just fine.
Our sunroof was opening/closing on it's own.
Search on google, and you will find the answer for "sunroof syndrom" or such for audi. Common stuff and easy fix. It took me about 20 min.
