Default Sunroof Rattle

I SEARCHED! I SEARCHED!
OK when the sun roof is fully closed and I hit a bump I will hear a rattle. I have opened.
The only thing weird is when I press on the very front center of the glass right before the rubber,(pushing up on the glass) The rattle stops. I cant look and see anything noticeable. It is driving me crazy. If I open the roof even a crack it stops.

Anybody have any suggestions I dont want to take it to a dealership just for this.

if it squeaks then you can buy some teflon tape from the dealer to fix this. You apply the tape to the opening all the way around where the panel is. You apply it to the car and not the panel

No it sounds like when you tap a screw on glass.
Im guessing the glass has to come out to fix it.

My '99 sedan does the same thing. I just close the shade to dampen the noise. If someone figures out a fix, please share...
