Driver window squeaking- which lubricant to use?
My window rubs on the back window, and squeaks when going down. If I put the rear window down, it doesn't make any noise.
Which type of lubricant does Mercedes use for windows? I would take it to the dealer, but it's about an hour away.

I don't know which lubricant to recommend but, before trying that I would try doing a window reset. Follow the procedure outlined in your owner's manual.
If that doesn't help, I would have a technician check for proper operation of the windows. As you know, they have a unique way of working together to insure a tight seal and lack of rattles. If all is up to spec there should be no squeaking or binding.
If the problem is not solved, then someone else here or the technician who examines the windows will undoubtedly recommend a lubricant. I just wouldn't want to cover up a possibly more serious problem with lubricant.
Please advise how you resolve the issue.
