Sunroof whistle when tilted?

I've noticed that for about the past month, my sunroof has been whistling when tilted open when i go beyond 60mph. Does anyone else have this issue? I don't think this happened during the summer.

That happens to me as well. Only on the highway above 100 km/h (60 mph). Also, when mine is already tilted and driving on the highway, it won't slide closed. Is this normal?

I've had maybe 3 instances where if I press the button to close it, it will close then tilt open again right away.

Try sunroof calibration per post # 13 in this thread: https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-2004-2008-93/sunroof-not-closing-flush-roof-566146/.

Interesting. Mine is extremely quiet when tilted. I forget it's open usually.
