Default sunroof rattles

so randomly my sunroof has begun to rattle terribly when driving at 70+.

it only rattles when closed, if I have it in the "up" position there is no rattle but obv then u get road noise.

I looked as well as I could down into the tracks and felt around and couldn't see or feel any loose screws or anything so I'm stumped.

has anyone else had an issue with this?

any advice greatly appreciated.

I have this on my car as well, I haven't tried it personally but I know the techs in my shop lubricate the door seals, and other weatherstrip on the cars they work on (non Lexus) and that silences that issue. I would try going to a local parts store and see if they carry some weatherstrip lube, we use something called molykote.
