Angry Power Windows

Whats up with my passenger side power window? It seems like it gets slower by the day. Anyone else have this problem? What can I do about it? Any help will be much appriciated.

A lot of people would suggest a new motor but if it's out of warranty then you probably just need to lubricate different areas.

You can lubricate the rails and the gear on the motor if you remove the door panel and pull back on the insulation.

The dealer also carries a silicone lubricant for the molding around the window.

I went through this a few eeks ago and my window is much smoother now.

I read something on here a while back saying that it is almost slipping out of track or something, to readjust the window in the track and it would take care of it.

In a realated story, my drivers side window went down so slow last night that it stopped halfway down, I had to hit the button again to get it moving along. How annoying. I just sprayed about month ago too.
