my electric windows are really slow when closing. when openin thet fine but when i close them they take so long and sometimes they get stuck please help thanks

anyone there hu can help

Do a search on the forum mate :)

Many reasons why this could be happening, most probably the window has come off the runners. Whip the door card off and take a look :)

My bet is that it has come off the runners, if you take your door card off you will most likely see that one end of the window isn't attached.

THANKS ill check tomorrow

i have the same problem drivers side only, it struggles too much when going bk up, on the other hand, i belive its just damp inside, so when its been raining it will strugle alot and for few days after, however, when its been very sunny it has been dried and it has no problems going up, my friend who works at a garage said the same along the lines of dampness water inside. i just left it, got used to it now..lol

is there any way you can solve this becuase near the rubber there is all gooey green substance i think its cuz of the rain

i hav the same problem...

only on passenger side... its slowly got better hte longer I've had the car...

someone said something about the seals might restrict it?

but might b worth takin the door car off for a look lol....

I've just lived with it for hte past 9months...

mines doing the same drivers side. I'm going to lubricate the mechanism as i suspect thats the reason behind it.

Mate take your door card off and have a look at the mechanism inside, the chances are it could do with some greasing and possibly the electrical contacts might need cleaning too, if this doesnt help then the motor might be knackered and might be worth replacing altogether.

I've had this problem. only passenger side.

When i got my windows tinted the guy said that the galss is really tight in the frame and when the window goes up its getting stuck and doesnt want to go any further and throws a wobbly sending itself back down.

just need to lubricate the window where it sits in the seal either side of the window.

hope this helps.

which part are you talking about, on the door frame were it seals when closed?

or sumthing inside. without ripping the whole inside of the door apart u cant really get to anything. I've already butchered the inside of my doors now. stupid foam crap!@!!
