Found that Damn Rattle

[edubpdx]

Has anyone tried installing a weathertech sunroof wind deflector? It’s supposed to be a pretty easy install except for the big Ass oem wind deflector thats built into the sunroof on the 2020’s! Ughhh!! I can’t fit the aftermarket deflector over it. Anyone done this before and have suggestions?

Try loosening the sunroof fixed rear panel just like the OP. I had to do this to mine too, also got the Kryton GPL 205 grease and between the two it's relatively silent now. For mine the rear of the fixed panel is as low as it can go, and the front is about midway. Even side-to-side. You'll want a T25 Torx + ratchet + short extension and about 10 minutes.

You guys are life savers. I am waiting for the grease but the moment I touched that moonroof it started making noise. I was about trade my truck in I couldn’t take it any more. THANK YOU!!!

Is the Krytox the only option at $24 for 0.5oz tube? Or has anyone used SIL-Glyde ($9.50 for 4oz tube) and got a similar result? I'm assuming the idea behind Krytox is 100% PTFE?

Yes I see, but I mean what does he do here !!! does he live in the air vent all the year

Hey, don't ask me! I found that photo on the internet. No snakes in my truck.

According to @Oldfart, goat sêmen works the best. And it's cheap. Personally, I'd rather do Krytox.

That's why sheep go to heaven and goats go to hell. Ask @Oldfart
