Default Strange noise coming from Sunroof

Hey all,

When I have the sunroof open and am coming to a stop I hear a faint hum like a motor, anyone here experiencing the same?

Sunroof air deflector is motorized. At low speeds it is all the way up. Drops somewhat lower as you go faster. Thus should be deflector just returning to its high "rest" position. I think transition is somewhere around 40MPH. Put your hand on it while driving slower and then faster or vice versa and you should feel it move.
