Morning everyone!

I know that this is a common problem that can develop on all cars, but I'm not sure what the cause is and unfortunately, my car is suffering the ailments of it. Whenever I roll down my driver's side window, I get that horrible fingernail on chalkboard type screech. What exactly causes this and how do I fix it? It seems to have started when the weather began turning colder, but I don't know if that's part of the cause or just a coincidence. The windows are tinted if that makes a difference.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm tired of cringing every time I have to roll down the window to get in and out of the parking garage here at work. [:@]

Thanks!
Cheers!

 

LOL...funny.

Mine does this too sometimes. Ive never had the ambition to tear into it and find the cause though.

 

it affects me too, but i don't get a screech i get a sound like an acorn is stuck inside and is rolling around when i roll the window down i hate rolling the window down. I think I need to put some moleskin in the doors this spring

 

It only happens to me when it's raining and the windows are wet.

Take it to the dealer, they'll take care of it!

 

It's the rubber seal at the back of the window. Mine did it a few times as well and i trackedit down tothe seal at the back of the window.Not inside our outside but front to back. on the back of the window theres a little rubber seal that goes around the window.

 

mine does it too when the window is a little wet. anyone have a quickfix for it?

 

I may have to check that out. Thanks!

If that doesn't work, then I make just ask the dealer about it since it's under warranty, but I was hoping for a quickfix first.

 

I got the same problem which seems to appear when my window is partially down at over 90mph. I heard you can use the silicone spray for that, but not sure if it really works

 

Mine does the same thing when wet. Even if the door is open and I let the window up or down they sound horrible. Very embarassing for a brand new car to be doing this.[:@]

Please help - someone has to know a fix for this problem.

Thanks, skyflier1971

 

Mine started it a month ago, was bad today since it rained hard. Will ask them to look at it thursday when i take it in for the airbag recall.
