There is a GM bulletin about 8 pages long (!) on fixing roof noise. If you are under warranty and just using some dielectric silicone grease doesn't solve the problem, get the bulletin and work through it yourself or have your dealer do it under warranty.
Under warranty, my top had 4 different issues that needed to be corrected. Now, it's perfectly quiet.

I used Super Lube ($6 from Ace Hardware), some clean rags & Q-tips. Put the top on soft blankets & carpet for easy access.

Hopefully the lube will fix your noisy roof. If not, the above thread has other possible solutions.
Just don't over-lube it -- too much makes a mess:

Do a google search for a number of sources......also, Amazon sells it.
It's made for rubber to lubricate and protect.
