I am having the same problem, I plan on going through this battle with the honda dealer next weekend. I also have a rattle in the right front quadrant of the dash.

I havent closed that cover since day one of owning my car. Why buy a car with a sunroof to cover it?

here, this is what fixed mine, and i close the cover when i park it for a long time (school) and when the glass is real dirty and ugly to look through.
