Sunroof Vibration

When I'm driving at or above about 60 MPH with my sunroof open, the glass starts vibrating. The noise is very annoying and I'm wondering if anyone else has noticed this problem. The truck is an '08 built in May.

its normal, i think. it happens in my truck also. i have 2008 cc6.4 only thing that works is to open one of your windows or back sliding glass bit and noise usually goes away. hope this helps

its wind buffeting, you'd get the same thing if you just had one window open, if it is your drivers window usually the driver won't notice but passengers will, other windows and the driver will notice, 1 back window and both front seats will feel it, do not know about the back seats though

I feel a buffeting at speed with roof open, but not glass ratling. Like darkstone said, I just barely crack the rear power slider...like an 1/8 of an inch, and it reduces dramatically. Mine is an '08, also built in May.

Thanks for the info, guys. I've tried the lowering of the windows--maybe I've just not found the right combination. I'll keep experimenting.
