Squeek from top
 
With the top up, I'm getting an annoying squeek/creek from the top mechanism behind the drivers seat, fairly far back, when I go over bumps. I'm pretty sure its the top since there is no noise with the top down. I've tried pushing/pulling on the various top compenents with the top in various positions, but I can't get it to squeek.

Any ideas?

good luck fixing this nasty issue

just an idea, put roof in service mode, try adding pressure with a lace or a velcro belt onto various links in there, and go for a ride to test. I gather you mean the noise is coming from under the clamshell and only hear it when you drive.

Some chance you could isolate the noise by immobilising some parts in there. Luck again

The cable (tension rope) may not be caught on the ball. Silicone spray on the rubber gasket under clam shell.
