just wondering if everyone else has the same problem we do..
my gf has a 98 magna, after driving for a while the windows wind them selves down a bit. not heaps and they dont keep going down, just enough to break the seal. every few days i have to wind them back up cos you can hear a whistling sound from the wind. and also just enough to let the water in if i forget to wind them up when washing the car, like yesterday :rant:
not a real probably just wondering if it happens to everyone

I had a 10+ year old Rover with crappola electric windows that used to do that - I'm sure it was because the motors were worn and rusted to b*ggery. I certainly doesn't happen with the Solara but then its only 3 years old - is yours Electric or Manual winders?

My mums 98 Magna with manual windows does the same on the passenger side, it happens to some magnas becuase of the door design. My 98 Magna only does it a couple of mm max on the drives side window, but not enough to let water in :)
