Squeaky sunroof

Does anyone else have a sunroof that squeaks terribly when closed? Did you use anything to lube the weather strip? If so, what? And did it work?

I do. Plan on taking it to a dealer sometime unless someone fixed it here.

I had that problem thought is more like a creeking.... it turns out that one of the cables that pulls the roof open was shot plus they put some lithium grease in the track.

Mine doesnt make a sound when MOVING... it's fine then. It only groans when it's closed - so I think I just need to lube the weather stripping.

I have that problem. I have taken it to the dealer 2 or 3 times for the creaking. They lube something, then it lasts for maybe 1000miles then it starts right back up. It's quite annoying. I would love a solution that lasts.
