Squeaking moon roof

Am I the only one with a squeaking moon roof? I swear, every time I am on a not-so-noisy road, all I hear are squeaks from the moon roof and it drives me nuts. At first I thought it may be the roof structure, but I am beginning to wonder if its the rubber seal around the moon roof that is squeaking

Anyone else have this issue and know a fix? Of course the dealers never hears any sounds

Mine is the same way when going over road bumps. Especially if I push up on on the glass. Definitely annoying to say the least

had the same issue, you can try to undo slightly the screws that are against the front side of the cover against the car, i.e. when you open the roof from outside you can see toward the front of the horizontal cover against the car screws, try to release them a bit, in my case it resolved the issue and got the solution from the forum, apparently to do with friction of the screws against the plastic material.

Martin - Can you post a picture of these screws...want to make sure i turn the right ones. And how much did you loosen? 1 turn, 2 turns? Dont want to cause water issues

Thanks
