As a Mistra owner, I recently had constant creaking noises from the sunroof, especially when going over bumps – really annoying. After checking, I found it's usually caused by dust buildup on the tracks or insufficient lubrication. I cleaned the tracks myself with a damp cloth to remove dust and then sprayed some silicone-based lubricant (avoid grease-based ones to prevent mess). The noise reduced immediately. If the sound persists, it might be due to aging seals or loose screws, in which case it's best to visit the 4S店 for adjustment. Try to avoid opening the sunroof on dirt roads to prevent debris buildup. Don’t let small issues escalate and affect driving comfort. If the noise is too loud, close the window and use the AC for safety. Regular cleaning and maintenance every 2-3 months can save money and hassle. The Mistra is well-designed, but pay attention to minor details—don’t overlook small issues.
