Wind noise on sunroof F34: 2015 328i xDrive

My sun roof makes a considerable amount of wind noise. My seals look to be in good shape. Is there something i can do, or are they just like this.

Anyone else experience wind noise from their sun roof?

Mine's totally quiet. The only way to track it down is with a mechanic's stethoscope. Run it around the sunroof perimeter to find the noisy spot, preferably with someone else driving.

I’d start by cleaning the tracks/rails really well make sure it’s seating all the way when closed. Fwiw I have noise from my M sport mirror caps so there could be other sources.

Mine has the same issue. The noise is at the very front and all along it. I've put some grease/lube on the gasket and it comes back within the month or the next time i wash it. No leaks to speak of, but the wind is clearly making music up there. I keep the sunroof cover closed and that helps a great deal with the noise, but i can still hear it if i have the music off.

I used dielectric lube (silicone grease) all along the edges of the sunroof. the whole thing had creaked all the time. infuriating. now it's silent. do recommend.

I've noticed the wind noise is considerably louder when I have sun shade open. I typically just keep the sun shade closed.
