It's all software these days, isn't it? 
Kidding aside, I agree that this is an analog problem, not a digital one...

And before the flames come out, it is a 100% touch free high pressure car wash

In your car, not only did you have a wind noise but you also had a water leak. To me, that sounds like the roof wasn't closing all the way so recalibrating the close point would certainly help...

Did the wind noise go away? On the loaner car I drove, it seemed that the roof was closing all the way but that it was misaligned (up and down). Pressing up on the frame stopped the noise so I'm figuring that unless there's a software adjustment that causes the leading edge of the roof to move up, this fix may still be a mechanical one.

I'm going to review cobradav's SIB list. I seem to remember a bulletin on the e61 sunroofs and a retrofit kit available to correct alignment.

I've got a bunch of windnoise coming through the top of the panoramic sunroof.
When I push up on it, the noise goes away.
It's at the service center (2 days now!) and they haven't told me anything yet.
Anyhow, I'm trying to figure out if this is a problem, and if there's a known fix for it yet.
Thanks,
Jed

My Ride: e39 525i Touring, will order e61 as soon as I can decide on engine and options...
Two issues I have notice during winter:
1 rattles driving over bumps from the "bar" in the centre of the roof.
2 the roof "pops" up when tilted, the frontmost glass section pops up as if it was stuck.
Will book a time and get it fixed.

I have had a number of issues with my Panoramic Roof , wind noise, squeaking in cold weather and a nasty grinding noise when tilting. Dealer has just replaced whole Panoramic roof assembly, after I took one of the technicians out in the car and he could see and hear all the issues.

It seems like we have a successful (hardware) fix...
