Any good remedies for ensuring the window/mechanism doesn't freeze solid so when you open the door and the window tries to drop it is able to do so?
Been pouring tepid water over the drivers window before opening but I think this is actually making things worse as water then freezes under the seals.
This wasn't so much of an issue on my CLK as the windows were of the non dropping variety, but on the CLS I fear damaging the window motor or the door seal which is very snug fitting and gets in the way if the window isn't able to drop.
Is putting silicone grease around the seals the only real possibility?
Also noticed my folding mirrors straining when frozen - I suppose I could disable these from auto folding in the cluster..
