Default creaky windows

I'm sure it's my window's that are creaking. It happens constantly, when i'm driving round a car park going over speed bumps or on the open road soaking up the bumps. Has anyone else had this problem?

Default Re: creaky windows

Yep.....Ive got it in front :-( I have noticed that my problem is oonylt there when the window is completely at to top....completely closed.

But if I cranck down the window 2mm...then there's no problem :-(

My solution was to spray all rubber parts touching the window....but this only helps for a month or so.

Default No problem

Im going to replace the entire interiour in my A3 this weekend so I hope that I will be able to locate the exact place where my problem is and prevent it from making that annoying noise......

<center><img src="http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/macnee/PC270006.JPG"></center><p>We dont get the Ambition or attraction models in the UK. We seem to get the SE or the sport, the latter being what I have. My A3 is red too with a grey interior. The only red being on the checkered seats. I would someday like to cover the door panel trim with red altatara some time though.

yup it is a bit too much. Not much of an attraction then LOL. I do like the panel on the door, although maybe not on the door pocket too. Have fun swapping across. :-)
