Default Roof Noise

Has anyone experienced a clicking noise that sounds like it comes from the roof of the A5? It usually happens when the body is twisting like going up a driveway while turning (usually turning right)
The dealer has not been able to identify it even though i have taken the mechanic on a ride and was able to duplicate it?

I occassionly hear a "pop" from the sunroof when in a similar situation. I just assumed it was due to the twist of the body...structurally, the sunroof is going to be a "weak" point in a rigid coupe body.

Yep.
My glass roof panel pops in the same situations on occasion as well. Seems to do it worse in extreme hot or cold temperatures.

Yup happened to me many times, and the dealer won't do anything about it.
