C63 Panoramic Roof Creaking
Hi
does anyone that has had this problem, and managed to have it fixed, know what was actually done to fix it? My car has been into the dealer several times and still no luck. I know it's the roof because if I push up on it with my hand from inside when I hear it creaking it stops.
Thanks

I actually enjoy holding up my glass roof. It makes people I pass think I'm constantly 'raising the roof!'.
In reality, there was a post here a while back that suggested that the dealer could re-align the pano roof to help with the creeks. But the true issue is the fact that the metal body of the car flexes a little while the glass really doesn't so it rubs on the gaskets. See post 18.

The pano roof on my C BS has creaked since day one. Usually when I am cornering and the chassis is flexing is when it is most noticable. Dealer has heard it but says there is not fix, they say it's the nature of the beast so I just live with it.
