Q5 sunroof noise causes: 1. Insufficient lubrication of the car sunroof sliding rails, it is recommended to apply lubricating oil to increase lubrication; 2. Dust accumulation in the sunroof track, clean the debris and dust in the track; 3. Loose screws of the car sunroof, just tighten the screws. Precautions for using the sunroof: 1. Before opening the sunroof, check if there are any obstacles on the roof that may hinder the sliding of the sunroof; 2. Try not to use the sunroof on bumpy roads to avoid damage to the sunroof and sliding rail components caused by vibration; 3. It is strictly forbidden to open the sunroof on rainy days or when cleaning the vehicle to prevent rain or water droplets from causing the rubber seals and metal parts of the sunroof to age and rust easily.

I've been driving an Audi Q5 for several years, and the sunroof occasionally makes squeaking noises, especially when there are significant temperature changes. Later, through my own research, I found that the main culprits are dust accumulation on the tracks or dry lubrication. Buying some specialized silicone grease and spraying it on the tracks immediately eliminates the noise. Remember to regularly clean the dust from the tracks and avoid using regular engine oil, as it tends to attract more debris, leading to more severe wear. Also, don't operate the sunroof too forcefully or frequently to reduce the burden on the gears and seals. Pay extra attention to maintenance during seasonal changes to prevent contraction and deformation. These simple maintenance steps can save a lot of repair troubles and make driving more comfortable and worry-free.
