Creaking Sound in Head Liner

Hey Guys,

I'm getting a creaking sould coming from the headliner. .It sounds like it's coming from right behind the sunroof. All components feels solid and creaking doesn't go away when I press on anything.

Anyone come adross this issue and found a solution?

Could be the pano sunroof bolts have worked loose
They do. Mine did.

You will find a youtube video on how to fix it
In one video they missed a couple of bolts
Make sure you tighten them all

Shows how to get to the bolts at the rear of the sunroof
On mine I found two extra bolts that are easy to miss
Make sure to have a good look at how it is attached and tighten them all.
I didn't use any locking compound just did them up real tight
