Anyone know if you can replace the seal around the sunroof? At speed 50 MPH and up, I get a wind noise. It's not a whistle, just the sound of wind moving over an rigid surface. The roof dosent leak, but I've determined by using painters tape that it's the seal on the sunroof. Is it possible or would I have to purchase the entire sunroof unit? If so, where could I get it besides the dealer? The dealer in Jackson, MS may be the wost service/parts dealer in the nation.

Have you tried adjusting the sunroof alignment? Not sure if it was this forum or another, but somebody gave instructions on how to adjust it.

Are you sure its the sunroof? I Just spent six hours on the freeway coming back from Death Valley listening to the roof rack channel cover next to the sunroof buzz. I thought it was the sunroof at first, but under certain conditions the tape (for the lack of a better term) buzzes like crazy.

my sunroof was getting some wind noise and the dealer diagnosed it as a faulty weatherstrip on the glass. And ofcourse the weatherstrip is only sold with the sunroof glass so thet'll set me back $600+
