This doesn't seem like something that would just start happening from the friction of the glass against the rubber seals in one window but none of the others. But maybe it has. Is there a good way to check that the window has not slipped out of place, causing the rubbing sound from it being pushed against some amount of binding? If that's not the problem, is there any type of lubricant that would be appropriate for the situation? Thanks, Stan [Reply]   [No Email]

Does the window come up smooth or jerky or slower than the drivers window? Usually, smooth = needs a cleanin. HTH...good luck...don t. .... [Reply]  [No Email]

Hope it helps, Regards, LOU [Reply]  [No Email]

Seen that happen from a person slamming a door real hard or other such thing and that can cause that type of problem. A lot of times you can see it by looking at the rubber or what ever it sits in in the window frame as you will see a mark showing it rubs harder in that area [Reply]  [No Email]
