noisy sunroof
hi
i got chance to take my car for a nice drive today but i did notice that when going over the rubble strips in the road comming to a roundabout the sunroof was very noisy, i push upwards on the sunroof and the noise stopped, i dont think its really loose, as it works fine and i havent noticed any leaks, anyone else had this problem? thanks in advance

OH!! Looks like it ME to the rescue AGAIN ....Right then ....
Ash... Sit in yer driving seat & put yer hand above yer head you'll feel/see a Bar going across the sunroof (towards the rear of it) ITS LOOSE!!! & its a SWINE to tighten up the Torx bolts. to stop it "Rattling" get a HUGE luump of Bluetac or a few rubber washers & stick em between the glass & the Bar ... = NO MORE NOISE!!! Personally I used a bit of a polystyrene Tile (the gap is only bout 3mm) If you wanna repair it "Correctly" you'll have to remove the "Runner covers" & tighten up the Torx bolts ... but as I said its a BITCH to do ....
