Rattling roof
I have had my 04' is3 for 4 months and just the past week i've been hearing a rattling in the roof when i drive unless the road is perfect or i am driving slow. I tapped the roof on both sides and it rattled...so its not like there is a screw loose its jus like the panel is...has anyone ever come across this?

Other things that could cause an overhead rattling would be: loose bulbs inside the map lights, the roof-mounted radio antenna or antenna cable not securely attached, or a loose inside trim piece on the upper part of the A-pillar.
Good luck.

Yeah i have a sunroof and actually as of late i have had it open...i might just bring it to the dealer if it keeps going...cuz i dont think it is anything that fell in it might be something that i couldnt help. Thanks for your suggestions.

oh yeah i forgot to mention that the rattling wasnt near the moonroof though....i was around where the handles are above the rear door...on and the rattling only comes from the rear driver side...so i dun think it is the moonroof giving the problems
