Mine neither and I had my sunroof fixed. Although, now I notice our sound insulation really is not that great.

I put a little spray silicone on the rubber trim around the sunroof glass and that helped a lot. I've heard of the seat squeaking, but the dealership has a fix...supposedly. There is a service bulletin out on the subject. I haven't taken mine in for that yet.

Better yet, just turn the radio volume up really loud and your problem is solved.

yes, the seatbelt did have a common problem which the dealer fixed for me. it's actually very simple. You take the seat out via the 4 bolts, and look at the spot where the seat belt latch connects to the seat. Right there it rubs, so he took off the bolt, put a washer behind it to space the bracket off the seat, and re-bolted everything down. Total time was less than 20 minutes and no more squeak!

With regards to the sunroof squeeking, this is very annoying. Acura will put a special lubricant on the seal which works great @ no cost.

Acura has a teflon tape that goes over sunroof seal which should eliminate the squeak.

I second that solution. There is a silicone gel that you can get at the Pep Boys. It stopped thesquek

Is that on the inside of the glass??
