crazyd Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 Has anyone ever had a persistent rattle from their roof that they were able to fix? I've tried everything I can think of short of taking down the headliner, which I don't want to do for fear of damaging an irreplaceable part. It's coming from the back of it, and is somewhere between the glass and sunshade, as closing the shade quiets it down a bit and opening the roof in vent mode eliminates it completely. Or turning the stereo up louder, which I've been doing for years. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
55trucker Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 Are both of the guide covers attached properly? They are plastic & are held in place on both inner sides of the track mechanism, they hinge at the front to follow the glass. When the glass is *up* you can see them.

GTP091 Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 My sunroof is not an OEM part so cant suggest a fix for a factory piece. However I have had the headliner out to recover and it was surprisingly easy to get out and in without twisting or bending it, need to put the seats all the way down. The pain would be removing all trim pieces that hold it up. If you have some loose plastic bits up there that are rattling a nice bead of silicone would fix it up if you cant just replace a squashed seal.

Can't say for sure that they are. I've had to remove them to remove the glass and replace the seal. They're attached in the front but not in the rear, are they supposed to be?

KnightOwl Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 No problems with any one of my moonroof cars. Sorry I'm no help but that is a mighty sharp GTP you have there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyd Posted August 8, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 Thanks KnightOwl - I adjusted the glass according to the FSM instructions and the wind noise and rattles are gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jiggity76 Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 If these guide pieces are black, I fear that mine might be broken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
