Sunroof Rattle

I've got a rattle coming from the sunroof and wonder if anyone else has experienced this and how they fixed it. I'm not referring to the clunking noise many have reported...this noise in particular seems to be coming from an aluminum bar that sits in the sunroof area. The small piece of aluminum rattles and becomes louder when going over uneven roads or highway speeds. Other than this and a bad amp, I've loved this car so far...

Thanks!!

It has been up and down lately. Overall our traffic stays about the same, but I have noticed a decline in really enthusiastic owners. It may have more to do with the current trouble Suzuki seems to be having. As far as I can tell this site is virtually unopposed in terms of competing forums.

If Suzuki would sell more cars I'm sure there would be a lot more after market parts, but right now there isn't a lot to talk about. When the warranties start running out I have a feeling new crop of members will arrive seeking help maintaining their own cars.

I have the same problem. When ever it goes on bumpy roads, or when the music bass is loud, it will start to rattle. I've brought it into two different dealers, and they can't seem to produce the same thing, so they didn't fix it. To fix that problem, I have to shove a cloth up into the gap to make it stop rattling. I'm about to take it into the shop again for an oil change as well as a check up on it.
