So, I was reading this thread https://dodgeforum.com/forum/3rd-gen...t-updates.html when I saw a post about how slow the windows roll up. All of my windows roll up at different speeds, and I was wondering if there was something I could do to make them roll up any faster?? Any ideas?
White lithium grease in the window channels, something that will not stain but will last. i used to use a drop of motor oil and let it run down the rubber but it smelled a bit. IF IN DOUBT ADD MORE LUBE! (words to live by)
My front passenger window has gotten so bad it wont roll up without the truck running. I have lubed the **** out of it to no avail. I will just wait until it quits completely and then just buy another regulator.
I think Dodge is pretty notorious for failing slow windows. I had an Intrepid and towards the end of it's life all the windows took at least 20 seconds to roll up and wouldn't go up without the engine running. Your best bet is to grease it up, if that doesn't work replace the window motor
I havent had any issues with mine yet. (knock on wood) I use bike chain oil on my regulator joint and window tracks. (I think the chain oil is white lightning or something like that.)
My passenger side window has been slower than the driver's side since the truck was new, sometimes I think it's slowed down more but it's not enough of a difference to tell if it's actually getting worse or if my mind is just playing tricks on me.
