convertible windscreen rattle

Does anybody else use the convertible windscreen and notice all types of rattles and creaks even with the top up?
My fantastic tech put some lube on it which really didn't help. I think considering what we pay for these cars that cheap plastic piece of junk is shameful.

I have mine on almost all the time and no rattle or noise and this is my second M8 vert. Are you using the OEM windscreen?

I second sdm3 no issues to report. Sounds like there might be a problem with your top for sure..

Mine used to be quiet, but now it rattles after 1 year. Today I was just thinking about pulling it out because I was getting tired of listening to it creaking.

I have another rattle that's started in the dash, behind the right side of the center display. The passenger top side of the dash was replaced under warranty for a leather defect so it could be related to that.
