Popping sound from roof

[eagle21455]

I own a 2006 coupe with the body colored top that was recalled for roof separation. Ever since they replaced it, the roof makes a popping sound when driven, more so when it's warmer. Anybody have any idea what is wrong? The sond comes from the drivers side.

There was also a set of replacement front latch handles for the early C6 which put a little more tension on the roof. My '06 had both handles replaced.

Search here for something called an "e-clip". The handles can be pre-tensioned by inserting an e-clip on the latch roller shaft.

HI there,

If the panel was replace, its most likely that the handles were replaced too.

Please check your handles to see if they have ROLLERS in them. If they do, those handles need to be replaced.

Then, you can proceed with diagnostics on the noise.

GM has numerous revisions with a TSB of multiple pages to address issues.

I have also seen the alignment pins LOOSE, creating issues.

Allthebest, c4c5
