What can i do to stop my drivers side electric window stop sqeaking when i open it. Its very annoying and very loud!! It must be something to do with the rubbers, but surely its not designed to have such a close grip and practically stop the motor when you open it. Does anybody else have this problem? Any hints or tips would be usefull.... ------------- Beemer dan 523i SE 1997 (184K) Canyon Rot Red, auto. 330 CI Msport Convertible, blue 51K. |

How olds the car? Im guessing the rubbers hardened which is causing the squeak , if thats the case there probably beyond a rubber treatment application...maybe new rubber time..

if the windows moving really slow could also possibly be the window mechanism, could do with a good clean & re-greasing hope u get it sorted |
