What year?

There are 13 TSBs concerning the convertible top making snap noises throughout the top and where it contacts the windshield. Which one it could be depends on the year since they have updated things over the different model years.

Ours makes cracking sounds when it's hot because the top is blazing hot in the sun and the A/C cools the cabin down so there's a big pressure difference. That pressure difference causes the seals to rub against each other. Without being lubricated, they make a cracking sound when you hit a bump. I'm going to be fixing that problem while it's in the garage waiting for a new ignition switch to come in.

Give me the year and I'll look up the right TSBs.
