Squeaky sunroof... could this be the reason???
I was washing the car the 2 days ago, when I was wiping down the water on the sunroof, I noticed that the rear right edge of the roof has a little bit of play... I can actually push it down a little and cause it to squeak(seems the sunroof mechanism is not supporting the roof properly). Driver side seems fine and no play....
Any of you who has squeaky sunroof has the same thing?? It looks like my sunroof needs to be adjusted...

The reason for the noise is the movement of the sunroof when making turns the sunroof felxes differently than the cars roof will and its rubber molding rubs against the metal causing the noise. The dealer has a fix which involves placing a clear adhesive strip around the moonroof opening which will completely stop the noise.

i do hear sunroof squeaks, i hear that noise when i turn off music and driving about 60mph.. And I took TLS to the dealer, but they did not fixed it. I will take it one more time. But I used to had seat belt squeaks since I took it to the dealer, they fixed it very well.
