Unhappy Sonroof Problems

When i go over any bumps even very little ones, the rubber gasket around my sunroof makes noise. Almost like it is dry(the rubber). If I vent it up no noise. I have no other problems with the sunroof. Anyone ever have a problem like this?

I agree, no reason for that type of rude answer... better to not respond at all IMO.

I've never heard any 'dry rubber' sound but one of the common problems with our GS sunroofs is a 'clicking' sound at speed. There are many threads on that topic on our forum. Here are a couple I found by searching for 'sunroof noise' in the GS forum. Check them out and see if it sounds like you're problem.

I haven't seen any definitive answer... some have done the TSB which puts some felt around the track and that helps a bit. My dealer likes to lube up the track which helps for a couple of weeks and it's back.

I typically just slide the sunroof open a little and it goes away.

Yo viking totally uncalled for!! My sunroof doesn't have the wind noise like the other posts. And looked on ebay there were nojn listed now and have some one interested in them right now. Don't you have anything better to do than type long wisea$$ responses (Like hang out with Hot Hot girls!!! And Live at Scores like your profile says). People who act like you shouldn't even be part of CL!!!!!!!!
