Hi all,

I'm finally giving in and reaching out for help with this one. My sunroof makes some absolutely awful creaking and clunking sounds when driving over rough roads (something us UK folks deal with on the daily!). This noise has been going on since I bought the car nearly 2 years ago.

I have googled alot and I can only find results relating to sunroofs making noise all the time, whereas mine only makes a noise when it is open. it's completely silent and solid when closed.

I have tried blasting all the runners with silicon spray but this doesn't seem to make a difference.

You can hear in the video it makes alot of noise when opening, but whenever a bump is hit while open, something sounds loose! It's been driving me mad and making having the sunroof open a pretty miserable experience.

Anyone know how to remedy this?

Right - you need to invest in some VERY expensive VAG sunroof lubricant. Its better than regular silicon spray as it doesn't attract dirt.

Part No: G00045002

Secondly, you'll need to go around and tighten up any of the visible screws. Make sure the wind deflector is also not bouncing around

Thirdly - and this happened to me on my 2019 L&K, the cover for the sunroof / panoramic screen - wasn't always clipped in at the factory and this will also need to be taken apart and put back together at a Skoda or VAG specialist garage.

Christ that is expensive.

Thanks for the advice, much appreciated! Hopefully I don't have to resort to 'thirdly'!
