I took me a while, but I finaly found the squeek coming from above.
I seemed coming from above the passenger head, but after a long quest, I even removed! the roofliner for a part, I simply could not find the cause.

Today I found it, it was simply the edge of the roofliner that made contact with the windscreen (about the whole richt part of the roofliner).
While driving and having the noise, I could feel the roofliner rubbing against the windscreen. I squeezed a credit card between the roofliner and the windscreen, no more noise.

There must be a space of about 2-3mm between the edge of the roofliner and the windscreen, so if you can insert a credit card and it stays there, you could have a problem.

Probably many windscreens are mistakenly replaced or refitted to solve this stupid problem!
I did cut a slice of the roofliner foam and the problem is solved!
If anyone need more info how to cut, please post.
