I also have the sunroof rattle issue with my Magotan, which is quite common. First, check the lubrication of the sliding rails—dried grease can cause friction and noise. Use a dedicated car sunroof lubricant spray on the tracks and open/close the sunroof a few times to distribute it evenly. If the noise persists, dust or small stones might have gotten into the tracks—close the windows and clean them with a vacuum or toothbrush. Loose screws can also cause rattling; gently tap with a thin rod to locate the source, then tighten them. Aging seals are another frequent cause—apply some rubber protectant to ease the issue. DIY fixes are simple and cost-effective, but be gentle to avoid damaging the rails. If the noise continues or you find it troublesome, visit a 4S store for a free inspection—if the car is still under warranty, they might replace the parts directly. Regular monthly cleaning can prevent rattles, especially during weather changes.
I'm a hands-on car owner, and a sunroof rattle isn't a big issue. Try DIY: buy a can of sunroof lubricant spray, apply it to the tracks and wipe evenly. First clean with a damp cloth to remove dust—avoid scratching with hard objects. Applying anti-vibration tape along the edges can also reduce noise; there are tutorials online. If it's been rattling for a while, check if the glass is unevenly installed or parts are rusted, then adjust gently. If all else fails, just spend a few dozen yuan at a repair shop—affordable and reliable. Remember to maintain sunroof cleanliness regularly and cover it with a sunshade after parking to prevent dust. Preventing small issues saves time and hassle; don't wait until the noise worsens and affects your drive.
