I hear (or have a noise) from what it seems like the area on the top of the windshield where the top meets the car... I have used silicon "grease" there to keep the rubber in good shape but can't seem to get rid of the noise.. The really wierd part is that its there when the top is off as well...

Guess thats just my little "have to live with" with this car....

Default Easy fix

The console does tend to loosen up but it's easy to fix, open console, loosen the two screws at the front of the compartment, place some downwards pressure on the point where the fron and rear sections join and tighten the two screws back up. Silicone grease the rubber on the top and be certain the screws for the visors are tight and you should be noise free.

My roof is squeeky. I am going to try and tighten the release handle and see if that works.
