Hi guys, can anyone tell me how i can get rid of this horrible loud noise when i open the passenger window? As the window is going down it makes a noise (as if the window is being dragged against the rubber seals). im guessing it could be because the window isnt being opened and closed much??:dk:

any views??

thanks!!! :D
 
Try dropping down to less than 70mph, it'll be much quieter! :D

Seriously, does it make the same noise when the window is wetted with soapy water?
 
no its even when im parked up. its dragging against the rubber seals i think. i dont normally use the passenger side window so im guessing its due to not being used often. but everytime i want the window to open, it makes the loudest noise (its a tad bit embarrassing!)
 
Try some silicon lubricant on the seals and in the channels.
 
ill try that tomorrow morining. thanks!!
