just curious since it adds a bit more weight - does it track well?

Also creaks like the R.M.S. Titanic when not properly lubricated. Keep the silicon spray close by pano owners. Biggest disappointment about this car...never again will I buy a pano roof vehicle.

Can you provide details of how you lubricate the thing? Imagine having a 50% stiffer suspension like my P30

Mine doesn't make any noise. Interested in how you lube it anyway.

Silicon spray isn't recommended. Silicone sprays usually have petroleum carriers or propellants.

MB Special Lubricant - For lubricating outer guide rail of panorama roof
001 989 50 51

MB Lubrication Paste - For cleaning outer/inner channel, shift gate, pivot arm of wind deflector of top sliding roof (panorama roof)
001 989 46 51

From a W203, but should be similar and give you an idea...

And for the cost of the lubricant and paste, you might be better off paying the dealer or just asking them to lube your pano next time you're at the shop.
