Sunroof V70-XC70 2001

posted by  someone claiming to be Humbo on  Tue Jan 16 04:39 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Hi Stuart,

I had the sunroof-rattling problem. It started as a mild rattling, but soon evolved to a more serious issue. It turned out that some of the screws in the sunroof rails were loose. They wouldn´t stay fastened so my dealer opted to replace the entire sunroof fixing assy.

To demonstrate the rattling to the service rep, just take him/her for a spin, get the car to 50 to 60 mph and open the 2 rear windows. If the roof is already too loose, the resonanting air entering the cabin will make it rattle like a mad snake.

Be sure to alert the service rep to your intentions and even take care yourself, as the resonnating air will also make your eardrums rattle!

Hope this helps.
