Location: Russia, Perm		I don't know what kind of a noise your sunroof. However, my old 9G, too, was a creak. I used the silicone lubricant for rubber. The creaking disappears for about 6 - 8 months, then the process repeats itself. Can you it will help...

Location: Gawler		I have a similar noise from the rear which I cant pinpoint. Have ruled out all the usual stuff. Its like a plasticy crack/knock sound. I thought at first it might be the rear bumper flexing but it only happens when I turn into my driveway ( or someone elses) which has a bit of a rise or a dip. Your comments about the sunroof has made me want to investigate that area.

Location: Brisbane,qld		Yeah , mine definatley is coming from the sunroof area, i thought about tightening the nuts that hold it in but maybe ill leave it for the dealer to fiddle with since its still under warranty, its not really a massive problem , just annoying sometimes.

Location: Gawler		Mine is out of warranty but I would be interested as to what your dealer finds and what they do to fix it.
I agree it is annoying. Does it do it when the roof is open?. I must try that tomorrow and see if there is a difference. Cheeers

Location: Gawler		I drove home with roof open and thought it was gone but as soon as I turned into my drive away it went.It definitely seems more body/plasticy than metal
