Sunroof automatically adjusts when driving?

What's up guys. I have a 2017 C43 sedan and occasionally drive with the sunroof in the tilt position. Now I hope I'm not crazy, but sometimes I hear what sounds like the sunroof making a momentary adjustment when I change driving speeds. I'm typically the only person in the car when this happens as luck would have it. It almost sounds like the sunroof is raising and lowering in tilt position, but not enough to really notice.

Has anyone else noticed similar? Again, not sure if it's the sunroof, but it sure sounds like it.

Yes, the sunroof tilts a little once you reach 50 and it will tilt back when you slow down to 40. I'm not sure on the numbers, but thats normal.

Thank you for confirming. I really was going mad trying to figure it out. I checked the manual too but didn’t see this listed, unless I missed it.

I don't remember seeing it in the owner's manual. It's just what I observed as well when driving.

It's one of those easter eggs. I find them fascinating when I discover them.

Any other easter eggs that people know of? I saw that there are tunnel features for the A/C but my N.A. version doesn't have that. I haven't tried the auto windows close feature when it starts to rain while car is off and locked; not sure if true.

I've tested the rain functionality while the car is locked and it doesn't work. I heard it's a US regulation but I could be wrong. Nevertheless I couldn't get it to work.

BTW: When the Sunroof adjustes itself to a lower angle (at higher Speed), you can force it back out by pressing the Button again.
Then it will stay in this position. This will of course lower your MPG and create Wind-Noise.
