problem #1

Jun 012016

Forester 2.5 X Premium 2.5L Opposed 4

  • Automatic transmission
  • 50,000 miles

Driving at speed above 20mph, if Moon Roof is OPENED (slightly or completely), the rear roof area makes banging and squeaking noises. Problem goes away when Moon Roof is closed, reoccurs upon opening slightly or completely). Quite annoying.

Update from Jun 5, 2016: I am a former service adviser at an auto dealership and I do not see reason for these noises without removing vehicles interior headliner.
