seems like you have an 06
warranty's good, so take it to the dealer

i had similar problem. actually my sunroof had somee rubber membrane sticking out of the roof. i also have an 06.
took it to the dealer, changed the whole sunroof (glass + rubbers) in just 3 days.
all covered under warranty.

so if it seems abnormal, take it to the dealer and jus get it changed

I don't think replacing the seals will do the job long term. This is a recurring problem with the TSX, and it's not a big deal. It usually only happens in certain weather conditions, like high humidity. Conditioning the seals with something like silicon or something similar will take car of the problem. The door seals will do this too when the car is newer.

Any particular products?

My 4 month old '06 TSX has just started doing this as well...as you said, it just got humid lately and the temperature has dropped so these might be related. The sunroof is the worst part, but the doors seem to be doing it as well. The windshield might be doing it, too, but it might just be the front right door.

Anyway, do you have any particular recommendations for products? I'm assuming a simple silicon spray would work...applied with a cloth to avoid overspray and a mess, of course. Also, if anyone has suggestions on how to apply/how much to apply, it would appreciated.
Thanks!

Os.

Did the silicon spray thing for awhile but it was like I needed to do it every week. Finally, the dealer installed some clear tape on the roof on the vertical portion of the rim that contacts the rubber seal of the sunroof. This has permanently resolved the problem. I can't see the tape unless I look closely and know it's there. Seems sort of hacky but it's really unnoticeable and better than dealing with the sound.

As for the windows, no such permanent solution, and I have to do the regular silicon spray lubrication. Mine only do it in the summer though.

Mine actually comes from the front driver's side window, it seems like. It's especially noticeable when I'm backing out of the garage; I'm taking it to the dealer next week.

Weird ... I started to notice the seem squeek from the moonroof a few days ago. It's like the TSX family communicate with each other and attack all at once!
