Never heard about Moonroof whistling, I'm guessing the Rubber Seal is lose? See what your dealers says.

As for Brake Light, does the VDC light go off I'm asking because this happened to my VQ and all it was just Low Brake Fluid.

Yeah my brake light turned on too along with my VDC and slip light and wouldn't turn off. Went to the dealer and they told me it was the brake fluids and some other fluids low, fixed problem. :bigthumb:

You cannot open a sunroof on the interstate or with the car in motion above 5 mph. Perferabbly at a stop, you open the sunroof.

You have probably done this enough that now the sunroof is having a problem. You have damaged it, and it will not be repaired under warrenty.

The brake light is an indication the fluid is low. On that note, whenever the light comes on it should be brought to the dealer immediately. Typically, the dealer will then service the brakes, change pads, turn rotors if permits. This indication is to notify you that the fluid is low, but the brakes also need to be serviced.

If you do your own repairs, please refill the fluid level to the proper indications, and then check your pads for wear, and/or rotors.

I just read the every sentance in the manual where the word sunroof appears and not once did it mention this? Where/how/why did you learn/hear/read this information?

You're joking right? I do that almost every day in the summer and my sunroof is fine.. over 2 years now...

A google search also yielded no helpful results on where this information might have come from....
