Electric Windows

[XR6TWolf]

My windows seem to have got to a point where they are not well.....trying to put them up is a slow process. Question is, is this a common issue and if so, is it due to the motor getting tired or is there a more simple explanation.

I'm finding it is worse on the left front door but the drivers one isnt all that much better....probably irrelevant.

Any ideas welcomed

I used clear o ring grease , spread some of it in the channels for the window and them raise & lower window ,it worked a treat

I had similar issues with mine, I just put alot of Armarole on the rubber window seals fixed it up a treat I just do this every so oftern and keeps them moving like new.

Simple Vasoline is the best

Mine are very slow too. I been told some silicon lube should do the trick.

I'll lube the window tracks this weekend and see how it goes.

Supercheap have some stuff that fits the bill.

Some lubes not ok to use as they attack the rubber seals over time.

Read the can first!

griphite powder in the channels will do it too. be careful with it though- it gets everywhere!

Similar problem however mine actually starts clicking and gets jammed at a certain point. I think it started recently because when I start up at 5am in the morning I wind the window down to get the dew off.

Silicon spray is what we used to use in the workshops.
