Hi all

This may have been covered before, so I sincerely apologise for bringing it up again. My passenger side power window seems to struggle a bit. Is there anything i can do to 'lube' up my window so it goes in and out easier a bit and lessen the pressure on the electric motor doing the window wind/up wind/down?

can be a couple of causes, even crappy battery wont help things


pull the door trim off and inspect the cables, if they are all good a lil bit of lube on all the moving parts will help!

clean the glass and the furry seals on the window sill! mine did the exact same thing, so i pulled the door trim off to inspect the slides ect. and found the furry seals to be filthy. cleaned up with a bit of soap and water, works as good as new now.

Another vague possibility is that the regulator is out of alignment, maybe if other tips don't work, try loosening the bolts and reposition?

Try using silicon spray in the guides/seals etc, works a treat

I have the exact same problem, my passenger window in slower than all the others. Some kind of defect across the line?
