I've got a similar problem, but the problem is sporadic (seems to happen when the weather gets warmer). When the sunroof is closed and the sunshade is open, the sound occurs. When you hear the sound, if you tap up on the sunshade, does it make the noise? If so, then it has something to do with the sunshade in back hitting a piece of plastic/metal. I tried to have my dealer listen for it, but he couldn't reproduce it during his test drive.

I have had each of these sunroof problems fixed by dealer service. Each required the entire headliner and sunroof mechanism to be replaced. So far no ill effects. The first was the dreaded wind noise while the sunshade was pulled back and the glass closed. The second was the vibration noise occuring when the sunshade was closed fully or partially. Both issues have been resolved, yet I am unaware of a service bulletin for these items.
