Window Issues.

greenwidget · 09-29-2006, 06:55 AM

When I roll down the two front windows, and undesireable screeching noise is created due to the friction between the glass and the rubber piece that the glass slides against. This only happens when I roll them down, not up.

Has anyone encountered this problem? Does anyone know how to fix it (is there some sort of lubricant I can rub on the rubber to eliminate the noise)?

sounds like the seals have dryed up, on my old car i used to use a bit of silicon grease or Nylon grease to keep it lubed... make sure you get it all the way in wipe off any excess...

im not sure if this is the best stuff to use but it worked for me...

let us know howe you get on
