Fix to stop MIC hard top popping sound issue [how-to DIY video]

TSB 22-2070 was released on 2/28/22 to address "Squeak and/or Rattle from Roof" on both hard and soft top Broncos.
The fix is to pinpoint the source of the noise and then apply Krytox grease to the offending latch hook, locator pin, and/or roof seals as needed.
the Ford part number for a tube of Krytox is 164-R4906. It has also been included in the Ford service "Squeak & Rattle" kit for at least 20 years if not longer.

270 miles in and it just started popping. Was really quiet up until now. Had this thread bookmarked!

Mine just started making this noise on the passenger’s side the other day at around 6500 km on the odometer. It was fine all winter and the top has never been removed or even unlatched yet. I did remove the roof rack last week.

I unbuckled the front passenger's side roof panel and buckled it back up without removing, the clicking noise is gone. Must have just been off a hair.

My MIC roof started popping about 3k mi. in on a trip across the south, I did this mod/fix and it worked beautifully. Thank you OP / B6g!!
Bought some of this on Amazon. Worked like a charm. Far easier than any of the proposed “mods” I’ve seen. My biggest problem Is the rear glass on the hardtop. The rubber seals make all kinds of noise against the tailgate. Silicone spray works but I’m having to constantly reapply.
