Can I ask where exactly you apply the lubricant? I have been annoyed by this small problem - it can be be fixed by the dealer but only for a few months at a time.

You will notice that the greese may dry out especialy in the summer months and you may have to apply again.
I hope this helps

Mine was creaking after 6k mi when going over uneven surfaces (like backing out of a driveway or going over pothole) When I told the dealer I though they would say that they didn't noticebut they said "yes it was misaligned and we adjusted it". I have not heard the creek since. Bring it to your dealer and if need be show them while on uneven surface like backing out of a driveway.

RJC, ask the dealer to check the rails out on which the Pano roof slides on. I had mine replaced and the creaking has since stopped. I think there was a TSB or something out about this issue.
