Default My sunroof makes noise when tilted up when i go over bumps.

Anyone else experience this? If so what did you guys do? Its really annoying considering that 75 percent of the time when i drive this is tilted up (the other 25 % the sunroof is open all the way).

Default It's probably the sunroof rail guides inside...

They have a plastic liner that breaks away (really crappy design) and creates more gap between the rail and guide pin and allows it to rattle. Mine does it too...just haven't had the time yet to replace the rails. I've heard its a PITA... You can open your sunroof a little bit and pull off the rail covers and see the condition of the rails. Let me know what you find out...
