I have a 2005 saturn Vue 6 and the sunroof whistles a lot when it's closed and a lot when it's open. Should that be whistling like that when it's closed?

You probably need a new motor , but first you need to test to make sure . Do you know how to do automotive electrical testing ? Go on you tube an check out a few videos on basic electrical trouble shooting .You mite even find a video on sunroof diagnostics . 2005 Saturn Vue sunroof repair check fuse or circuit breaker first , the check power at the switch etc... I know a Saturn is no gmc jimmy but it is a GM product , an this may give you some ideas .

Hi Gary,

Apparently there has been some 'alignment' issues with the sunroofs coming out of Cadillac. As noted in the attached thread, the dealer can perform an adjustment which eliminates (reduces) the windnoise.

Good luck

Sounds like a insufficient ground situation. Start out by cleaning your battery connections. You probably have a ground wire that is responsible for several circuits, not connected securely to the chassis. This could be under the dash. You may have to consult your wiring diagram on your vehicle.

Did you turn your rotors???? sounds may be the pads are glazed. Remove the pads and scuff them up with coarse sand paper.

The same problem. How can I fix it?

CHECK THE RELAY SWICTH HAS NOT BLOWN.

sometimes you have to push button to obtain 1st position and to push and hold button again for open position , need more info ; manual should be clear on operation,. you can also call saturn sales or service they will usually answer a simple question . if your sunroof was used alot may be mechanical problem , need more info

I’m happy to help further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/gregory_8e6ba270263743ac

Some customers may comment that the sunroof will no longer respond to the control switch while in a vented, partially opened, or fully opened position.
Cause A software issue with the sunroof control module may cause the sunroof control module to incorrectly indicate a "closed" position, which may result in no power to the sunroof motor.
Correction Verify the customer concern. If a condition is present, replace the sunroof control module with a new sunroof control module, P/N 15847643. Refer to the Service Procedure in this bulletin.

Hi all,
I currently own a 2005 saturn vue and also a 2002 saturn vue. My 2005 began making the same whistling sound around 36000 miles, I let it go and let it go. Finally it got so bad I could not deal with it any longer, I have a great mechanic and he automatically point out the carrier bareing I had it replaced and my car is very very peaceful...... :) Hope this helps.
