Sunroof thud when opening
'07 ES350 sunroof makes a thud when initially opening...Sounds like its actually dropping down fast and hitting bottom. Occurred once prior and dealer said they cleaned the track. Does this make sense to anyone? If so, how do I clean the track?

If the issue was brought up to dealer while still under warranty you could always just go back. Depending on your dealer and if it was previously documented they would more than likely help you out with the issue.
The track is mostly lubed with grease. I would advise against doing anything to it unless you see an obstruction or object in the track.

Fixed it
I realized that the rubber seals were sticking and causing this issue. I cleaned and put rubber silicone protectant on the rubber and it's working perfectly
