Sunroof Screens Rattle

Works that way on mine. If you go to the dealer and complain, they will probably put some cushioned velvet like tape on it to keep it from rattling in the closed position. I didn't bother with that, I just keep it backed off a bit.
If you have no squeaks or rattles, then you don't have a MINI.

Try removing the speaker trim and apply thin slices of dynamat or equivalent, this will increase its weigth and make it less prone to vibrations, additionally, if you could insert tiny pieces of foam you weill be done for sure. Can you post a photo of where did you apply the the foam on the sunroof?

Could you please upload a photo of where to put this tape? This rattle is driving me nuts.

Sunrrof Screen RAttle Fix
Sorry for not posting sooner and hopefully this helps you with your rattle.
I have placed the sticky back thin foam piece at the point where the screen handle contacts the trim frame around the roof opening.
It is placed on the fixed portion of the frame at the point where the centre of the screen handle lies when fully open (the only time I had a rattle is when the screen was open). This is where I found enough contact for the foam to stay in place.
