my removable roof rattles/clicks on the road. I love my c6 but the noise drives me crazy. Does anyone have a real fix. I've tried lubricating the contact points and cleaning the weather stripping.
 
There are so many things that make the noises.
Here are a few of the fixes.
1) tighten the locator pins front and back
2) put shrink tubing on the pins
3) Place an Extra "O-Ring" on the front pins
4) make sure you lube the rollers on the front latches of the 2005-2008 model years. If you don't have the rollers, lube the contact point where it latches to the frame to prevent dry metal to metal contact.
5) if the front latch has rollers, then put a 5/32" "C" clip on one side of the roller to prevent lateral movement of the roller.
6) lubricate the weatherstripping.
I have pictures of the above fixes if you want me to add them.
If there is still noise after trying those items, then adjustment of the rear locators may be required to assure the top is even side to side

Good Luck.
