Default Squeaking panorama roof

Anyone else's panorama sunroof squeak? Mine is becoming increasingly bad, right around the front of the roof. I can stop it by simply pushing up with my hand on a plastic bit that sits between the glass and the roof of the car, in an lip area. The squeak is not the glass on the seal as the noise is the same with the roof open or not. Is this kind of thing covered under CPO?

I've got the same problem on mine. I've lubed all of the rubber gaskets with Silicone grease and even installed a couple of felt pad just under the headliner but still haven't found it yet, someday.....

Dude We have one right above the drivers head. Its so annoying. It creaks and groans constantly. It is between the sunroof frame and the roof so I dont know how to get to it. Good luck let us know how yours turns out if you try and fix it.

Had the same thing on the passenger side and no idea if it'll get covered by CPO but it was covered under warranty and took few trips to dealer because like that damn opera frog (that would sing only in front of its owner), it wasn't doing it when you needed it to.

That's it, though mine is over the passenger area.

Are there some bolts you can take out to lift the entire frame off the roof??? Im fairly sure the sunroof was built and then installed as an entire unit.

I have pano roofs on two of my Mercedes and neither leak or squeak. Maybe it's just certain models.

Maybe this link will help the ones with the squeeky roof. I just bought a cayenne and was just reading up about it. Havent received the car but just doing my due diligence.

Yes, link above to posted procedure corrects the squeaking. I used a small piece of denim fabric.

My wife used a rolled tourist magazine when ours started squeaking on a trip to Vancouver last year. It works so well, I don't want to mess with it!

I have also noticed that on rainy cold days, the seam between the back and middle panel squeaks a bit as well. It doesn't on dry or warm days. I suspect it is the moisture acting as a lubricant. I am going to try silicone and see if it helps. I had pretty good luck on other Porsches with the "dry lube" spray I use on my sailboat.

Cheers,

GREAT GREAT POST!!! I did this on both side of my panoramic roof and the most annoying squeaking noise is now gone. Thank you.
