Default I'm about ready to stick a pen in my eye.....window squeel>>>>>

the drivers side window has been screaming on its way up and down. Polished both sides w/ zaino...reied to clean the inside of the rubber/felt seal.

Default I hate that scream ... I get embarassed at parking lots when people turn around to look ...

where the noise is coming from.
It happens when the weather is above 50F and gets worse with higher temps!

I wonder if taking off the door panel and lubing things will help /

Default Mine makes wierd noises too...

When driver's window makes the last up movement to fit against the window, it like, squeaks/clicks into place... horrible sound... of course, it wasn't making that noise last week when I went into the dealership to get things looked at

Default someone suggested vinylex-ing the rubber seal on the door (overnight) when I complained about this

last summer. Haven't tried it yet... my windows aren't squealing yet, though they do like to open themselves.

I think all that'd do is leave tracks on the glass. Mine's always sqeaked.

Esp. the ones in front.
