Sunroof rattle present on mine but only when closed. The rear portion of the glass does have some up/down play when closed. I'll mention it to my dealer next month.

I had problems with a noisy sunroof in my f34 - the dealer eventually took the headlining out (a big job!) and found that a couple of bolts holding the frame to the car had worked loose. Covered under warranty.

Mine's getting worse again with the colder weather out here. Probably going to have to bring it in soon as I believe rattles/noises etc are only covered for 1st year if I'm remembering correctly.
Does get better as the car warms up but still can't figure out exactly what's rattling or causing it to rattle. The glass itself doesn't have any okay in it. Think it may be how it's mounted which means it will be a PIA to fix and something I'd prefer to not have them messing with :

I just picked up a new 2021 330xi M Sport and my moonroof creaks only when closed. When open or tilted open it does not creak/rattle Is there an open TSB for this? Anyone try fixing the issue with felt? I'm going to bring it in soon but I wouldn't want them ripping down the entire headliner on a brand new car ughh |

I had more of a creaking sound coming from my moonroof (extremely annoying). The dealer kept the car for 2 weeks but finally found the problem - had to change the moonroof cassette.

Was this "moonroof cassette" labor intensive? |

Someone needs to add a survey to this thread asking those who do experience rattles whether their cars were manufactured in Mexico or Germany. There is an implicit bias here against cars made in Mexico. (Or maybe it is more of a bias towards cars made in Germany.) I wonder whether we can really attribute build quality issues to country of origin. Maybe it occurs more in places with big temperature swings and/or rougher roads.

mine does too. Front seal is the issue. I tried cleaning really well. Seems to go away for awhile. But always comes back. Next time at the dealer I will get it looked at..forgot last time.

Mine rattles as well, ESPECIALLY right after you close it. It sounds like your pressing your knee into an old box spring mattress, not kidding. I took a video of it so I can show the dealer so they don’t hit me with the “could not replicate issue” line. I’ve had the car for 4 months with 3600 miles on it. Dropped it off at the dealer on Thursday for that and along with the speakers popping abs bass randomly cutting out at times ( I have the Harmon Kardon system).

I had an intermittent sunroof rattle/squeak on the passenger's side. It finally acted up in front of the dealer. The clips holding the sunroof rail had to be replaced. Supposedly, not an unusual problem.

Ive had my 2021 M340i (Mexico Build) for 2 months now. I first noticed the sunroof creak after I opened it for the first time. Ever since then, its noticeable every time there is body flex like dips in the road or in n out of driveways. Its very annoying to me as I should not have this issue on a car with 1500 miles. My IS350 went 45K with no sunroof creaks at all. I have an appointment tomorrow with the dealer to look at at so we will see what they can do.
