Default Sunroof Adjustment?

A number of people have mentioned the sunroof making wind noise. Looking at my car in the dark, I noticed that the back stuck up a slight bit. Hitting the switch to open the tilt, the sunroof moved to level with the roof, and then up into position. To get the roof to be level with the rest of the roof, I closed it, and then hit the open button on the tilt function once, bringing it down a fraction of an inch. This eliminated around 85% of the wind noise coming from my sunroof. As always, there is a "but". When I opened my door after driving, the open sunroof alarm came on. Are there adjustment screws in the roof? Also, could I adjust the height of the button that activates/deactivates the sunroof alarm?

Default Ive been wondering that

my sc400 sunroof makes alot of wind noise just driving around town. It does not leak, but is quite noisy. I also noticed that If i tilt it up just the smallest amount, the noise ultimately disappears, but the alarm comes on when I get out, I have just learned to ignore the alarm, but would also like to know if it is adjustable.

I too have noticed this problem in my car. Try some armor-all on the rubber seals around the sunroof and just rub it in around the seals. It should make alot of the noise go away, or at least it did on my car.
