Hello people,

Following some time going through the forum, i still couldn't find the issue i'm having now with my XJ from 2017.

I don't have a rattle of squeeking noise, but my sunroof isn't wind-quiet when i'm driving over 125 km/hours on our highways
Almost as if it's not completely closed, which it is, because i don't have leakages inside.

What causes this and how do i fix it?

I already bought today special gummyfix and lithium-grease, hoping this might help.

Good evening sir, when I bought my XJ the sunroof was suffering from the dreaded rush issues. So I sorted that out, then like you I noticed that there was some wind noise during motorway journeys.
When I looked at the sunroof from above I noticed that it wasn't flush to the bounded glass, so I adjusted it with a little bit of help from my responsible adult to make sure all four corners were flush, and like you used grease ect...now I just get the occasional groan but very little wind noise.

Tiprat.

Yep, I'd agree.

Mine's generally quiet as regards wind noise, but at much higher speeds, there's an element of that, and yes the blind quietens it down ( hoping each time the blind doesn't get stuck lol )
