Panoramic roof noise.
Hey guys!
I own a e250 cdi 2011 model amg package with pano roof. Sometimes when i run over some bumps it makes a very annoying noise on the roof something like a strong crunch that sounds like a hit! For a while i thought that someone was throwing rocks at my car! Have anyone of you had the same thing?
Any help appreciated..
Thanks!

I had a similar problem with an E63. In my case it made a snapping/cracking noise and it gets louder everyday. I roll to the dealer and they found out that the panoramic roof was loose and whenever the car was put in a twisting condition it would made the noise. I'm not sure how to explain how with words but I hope you understand what I mean. Fortunately nothing was damaged and it took them less than a 24 hours to fix it.
My advice to you is to go to the dealer, your car is a 2011 model and it wouldn't cost you a dime for them to fix it. Gd luck

Heard this many times before. Another reason to avoid pano if you can. Like the old saying, keep it simple.

I wonder if the "fix" simply means some glue between the glass and the metal. I thought I saw one of those recent video on the production line at the Sindelfingen--it shows that the windshields and rear glass were simply installed onto the car via adhesive and glue. If that's the case, I wouldn't be surpised if the entire pano assembly is simply glued onto the rooftop.

I had the pano roof on an S65 which I've just sold after 4 years and it was faultless. I'm a fan. It brightens the cabin at night and on gloomy days. The styling benefit on lighter colours is a bonus.
