hey everyone......
Does anyone else have the .0003mph window problem???? If I'm at the drive through It's embaressing cause you literally have to wait seconds for the window to go down. It's been doind it for a while now and the outside temp. doesn't seem to matter... Anyone know how to fix this???? Oh yeah My sunroof is like turbocharged..when you press the button it flys open.

 

goin down aint a problem with me, it goin up, the driver side is slow as ballz, but Im thinkin Im goin to have to go get a new motor for it, I have to sit in my car like 2 mins after I park to get my windows up, it suz

Try spraying the track with WD-40 or silicone. This has worked for some, but not for me.

When I experience what you are describing, it's a sign that my regulator/motor is getting ready to conk-out--again (I've had 3 regulators replaced so far).

 

My windows have been slow from the jump. I got in a 2000 Accord and I was mad surprised at how powerful the windows seemed to go up and down. I get into my car and it's like damn, What the F&*k is going on, I got a CL damnit My boy had to get his motor replaced also.

 

how much did it cost to get a new motor??

 

I don't know if it's the motor cause it's been doin it for a year...If it was a bad motor I think It would've died by now. I guess I'll give the siliconing a go.

 

where exactly would one spray the silicone> does this require removing the door panel???? THANKS

 

Regulator costs: $78.50
Labor was: $133.72
Shop supplies (????) were: $4.91
Tax (MD) was: $6.69
Total to Rosenthal Acura (under warranty) was: $223.82

PS: It took 2-3 months for the first one to break (from the time I noticed that it was "going"). The second one took about a month to break and the 3rd took 1 week!

EDIT: You can spray on the window tracks without taking the interior panel off, but you'd get better access (and results) by removing the panel and pealing back the moisture barrier (plastic). This way you can get all moving components.

 

hey dust is the window regulater covere dunder the extended warranty?

 

Yes!

try cleaning the rubber seals around the door edges, and spraying some of that silicone lubricant... be sure to roll the windows up and down a few times... my passenger side window used to be slow as hell, but a little cleaning and lubrication sped it right up.
