Slight inclines at low speed will result in no noise.
However, if I take slight inclines a bit faster, or even go slow up a steeper incline (when pulling into a driveway, parking lot, etc), my roof makes a popping noise. Sounds like something is popping out of place.
Looking around on google I found someone with a similar problem, however the issue was fixed by Lexus under warranty (replaced moonroof trac)
Anyone else have this problem? Bugs the hell out of me, that despite being careful, it still sounds like my car/roof breaks every time I go into a parking lot.

Perhaps it is the roof that is doing it; if you don't have one yet, you might soon come to find a dent in your roof like most of us :

Noticed my dent after hitting a good, sized pothole oddly enough on the right side of the car; dent is on the front left side of the sunroof.
