I have been noticing lately that more and more noise is coming from the moonroof area. The noise seems to be coming from the plastic "roof" itself. Is it possible that the moonrof needs to be replaced? Anybody experience the same problem? My RAV is 2003 model, type L, import JDM.

Had this one. Taken my vehicle to my local dealership to look at it and the hinges just required greasing.

Thanks much Toby! I do notice that the hinges are indeed dry. I'll try greasing them myself later.

I have a 2001, and my moonroof leaked every time it rained, but in varying amounts. Along with the leak, there was a great deal of noise coming from the roof, wind noise, whistling, etc. After a year of adjustements and drain cleanings, the dealer replaced the glass and seal on a goodwill deal, with a safety glass one. No leaks or noise since. I'm not sure if you mean squeak when you move the roof, but mine made noise and it was indeed the roof.
