Noticed that my passenger side window was a little slower coming up than the driver's side. Took the door card and insulation off and discovered that the window mechanism was totally dry; had no visible lube. Applied white lithium grease liberally on the tracks, gears and pivots. Mechanism is quick and quiet now. I recommend lubing the window mechanisms as preventative maintanence, to prolong both motor and track life. | | | | | 07-23-2013, 10:21 PM | #3037 | | Senior Member Join Date: Mar 2013 Location: New York Posts: 133 | Lube
Good tip. My passenger side is also making noise. I'll do this trick this weekend! | | | | | 07-25-2013, 06:46 PM | #3038 | | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2006 Location: Wisconsin Posts: 1,895 |

Instead of dishing out a few hundred for a Go Pro, I spent $2 and a couple hours and Ive got my own camera mount that works well enough  __________________ 1999 BMW 318ti

That is a real clean looking car James. I'm bummed that you didn't call Cindy Lou and I for an update. I guess you'll have to keep us in mind when you get the next one. __________________
