While lowering my top, I heard a thud or a pop. All seemed okay and the top lowered as usual. I drove the car home and left the top down (car stays garaged) for a couple of days.
This morning, I drove the car to work. As I park and raise the top, I hear the same (maybe louder) dull pop or thud as the top is about halfway raised. As the top finished approaching the windshield header, the left (driver) side has about a one inch gap.
I pulled the top the rest-of-the-way closed and buckled the center latch.
Did I do any damage?
I'm not sure I have the skills or the tools to do the repairs myself that I read about when searching for this issue here on the boards... what is the likely issue?
