Rattling Sunroof

Recommended Posts

McDude

My sunroof has lately picked up a very bad rattle. It's annoying in a 205 which is mostly rattle free.

 

The odd thing is that while it sounds like a loose bit of trim, it seems to be the noise of the glass shifting around on the seal as the body naturally flexes. The reason I think it is this is that when I open the handle, sucking the seal back from the roof the noise goes away. close the handle and therefore the seal and it's back to rattling again.

 

It's very odd - has anyone else had this problem? If so how did you fix it?

 

I'm thinking some sort of lube for the rubber - but not something that with smear on the glass.

 

Thanks

I have the same problem and it seems to be the the rear holding down bolt for the slider has come loose, but i am not sure how to get to the underside to tighten the bolt up :P i think i might have to take the roof lining off and tighten them all while im at it :ph34r:

Mine used to rattle.. turned out it was the handle. I still haven't fixed it properly(stuck some black tape on it :D ) but it did the job. Also stopped it leaking down through the screw hole and filling up the vacum handle and soaking me around the corners lol
