Peugeot 207 CC making a rattling noise

My wife’s Peugeot 207 CC has started making a terrible rattle from the rear when the roof is up. We took it to the local dealership for inspection and they put some sound proofing in, but the fault persists. Any ideas as to what the possible cause is?

Must be part of the roof mechanism not locking into place. See if you can half open it (to expose the mechanism) and look for something loose or broken.

Improves on the 206 CC in every single area. A quite impressive coupe-cabriolet. Best of the CCs this size.
