YES! This is helpful as many of us Atlas/Cross Sport owners are experiencing a popping noise in the roof where it turns out VW knows the roof rail bolts aren't torqued to spec. On the correct temperature/humidity and when the chassis torques a certain way on turns or even highway straight driving, a random noise sounding like like an acorn fell on the roof or the sound of something tapping on glass before it cracks. I've brought my SUV many times to the dealership under warranty to fix it but that sounds "somehow" never replicates when the tech drives it and it only happens when I'm driving. A constant nuisance for the last three years and I've owned mine since brand new in 2020.
Great job, you can tell you know what you're doing by how fast AND smooth you're going. At around the 7:25 mark, when you're prying the headliner from behind the molding - does that damage the ends? And how do you get it back under without removing the trim pieces?

But you don't show how to remove the most difficult part
Fun to see the process of Hail repair, the R&I side at least! great job nothing broken it seems. Great Job
Glad you liked it!

Definitely not, some headliners are more pliable and some are fiber backed, so you need to drop at least some pillar trims. Appreciate it!
How easily he untucked headliner from a.b.c pillars that amazing but in reality you can get it creased
Great video, I’m about to work a VW deal in Dallas. Any tips to look out for on these? Haven’t done any 2022+ models yet
How do the clips get lose that are under the dome light that are holding the headliner to the roof of the car?
Prytool and a screwdriver basically. Pull-down and release each side, or buy the tool from VW
Mostly a useless video when it doesn't show the details....
