Sunroof rattle/noise

[MayorBloom]

I tried searching but I am on my cell phone and I did not know what terms to search for.

Anyway. I last summer I removed my roof rails and added the prinsu rack. Since that time, maybe before, I have heard a metal rattling sound coming from my sunroof. I can only hear it when the sunroof is closed but the visor is open. I thought it was something loose on the rack, it's not it is as firm as it can be.

It's a 2016 trail premium. Has anyone else found out what this noise is from? Did I cause this by adding the rack or is this a warranty issue?

Any help would be great, don't really want to drop my 4runner off and be without a vehicle for the day and it's something I have to pay for.

Nope! No Sunroof Rattle or Noise at all on mine. I have 21000 miles on my 4Runner. I would be more worried about this. http://www.toyota-4runner.org/probl...3-2016-trail-leaking-transfer-case-fluid.html

If you have a gopro or a camera you can mount on the roof aimed at the rack, maybe you can see where the rattle can be located. If you didn't have a rattle before the rack was mounted I would say its the rack.
