There is a design flaw in the sunroof arm. You can't see it unless the roof is open but there is a little connecting clip/bracket thing that works loose and stops sitting flush with the arm after a while. It normally starts to click hinting at the problem but it can become so out of wack that it keeps the roof from moving. I've had 2 9-5's and in both it's been an issue. In the first I had (2000 MY) it kept the sunroof from closing soon after I bought the car used. I ended up breaking the arm just to get it closed and had it all repaired under warranty. Since and in my current 9-5 (2003) I have had it fixed at the first hint of a clicking noise. I bet it's out of wack and keeping the roof from opening. Don't burn out the motor trying to open it contstantly because that will compound your repair costs greatly.
