Rattle from sunroof

My car with electrically operated sunroof has developed a rattle every time I go over a bump or turn a corner. It sounds like a loose marble rattling around. Anyone any idea what it’s is and what’s the cure?

Yes, the cause is usually due to one or other of the small rubber insulators at each corner coming adrift, or dry seals, or a combination of both. Gummi Pflege (or KY &#128563 for the seals and you can usually find small adhesive rubber pads at most hardware stores. Do a YouTube search (not just X1 but all X series, and you'll find a few DIY videos.

I’m having the same issue as well, no matter what type of road I drive on.
