What to Do When There is Abnormal Noise When Opening the Car Sunroof?

[KalebRose]

When there is abnormal noise when opening the car sunroof, it is necessary to clean the sliding tracks in time. The sliding mechanism of the sunroof is track-type. After 3 to 6 months of use by the owner, a lot of dust and sand particles will accumulate on the contact surfaces and gaps of the sliding tracks. If not cleaned regularly, abnormal noise is likely to occur. There are three situations that can cause abnormal noise in the car sunroof: first, the car sunroof sliding track is not lubricated enough; second, dust accumulates on the sunroof track; third, the car sunroof screws are loose. During the opening process of the sunroof, only the sunroof sliding track is in motion. If there is noise, it may be due to poor lubrication in certain parts, and some lubricating grease can be applied; it could also be that the sunroof has been left open for a long time, causing a lot of dust to accumulate on the sliding tracks, and the noise should disappear after cleaning; it may also be that the sunroof has been used for a long time, and some parts or screws are loose, and tightening the screws should make the noise disappear.
