If it makes some noise when you hit bumps, just open it up and tighten the bolts for it. Two on each side I believe.

Then close it... Sometimes they get so loose that they don't seal anymore. But check the drain holes too.

a few bolts were a little loose
i noticed there was this metal strip near the back of the sunroof assembly which is fastend down with two screws well the plastic peice it screws into was cracked so the strip slides around freely
the weather striping could probley be replaced also
i also need the sunroof visor i may try the dealer ship see how much they want to charge
