Squeaky Window

Guys I searched the group and came across a couple of old threads on this issue that didn't really address how to fix the problem. My drivers side window squeaks when opening it or closing it ONLY when hot. It's driving me nuts. How do I remedy this issue?

I've had tints for almost four years and it only started to happen in the past year. I'm in So Cal so it's almost always hot here. I recall not washing my car for awhile and it started happening during that time. Are any of your cars in need of a wash?

I'm planning to do a more thorough wash soon to see if that helps.

I have the same prob. Just wash it and put a coat of zaino or any other polish on the lover half of the window. Works great

Try lubing the tracks with silicone spray.
