Not sure if something is out of alignment or it requires some kind of adjustment. It has been making noise for when moving up and down, although it still works. What could have caused the problem of the noise/resistance? Is adjust ment DIY?

What kind of noise?

One of mine makes one hell of a squeak rolling up, gotta get around to fixing it.

I had this info saved, probably from another post on here but not sure who it was from. Anyway, hope it helps.



First make sure your windows are all the way up -

1. flip out the tabs covering the screws holding in the inner door handle trim and at the bottom of the door grab/handle. unscrew those two screws

2. pull the inner door handle so you can remove the trim around it, and unplug the connector behind it

3. carefully pry up the door pull/handle (rocking motion), and again, disconnect associating switches.

4. pull on the door panel down below the speaker grilles - there's a spot to grab onto.

5. keep pulling on the whole perimeter of the door panel (except the top part), you'll hear the clips popping out

6. after all the clips are released, unplug the courtesy light, the security blinker, and anything else that's still connected.

7. with the panel completely disconnected, pull the bottom part towards you a couple inches, and lift/slide the entire assembly up and off of the door. the top part pulls out of a groove at the top of the door.

you may have to tear away some of the clear plastic to get to the good spots to lube.

you have to use the straw/tube that comes with the WD-40 to get into the tight spots. aim right between the wheels and the tracks, and give it a couple quick shots. any residue on the window probably would make a mess, so try and avoid it.

assemble the panel just the way that you took it off, but make sure you fit the top part of the panel into the groove before you snap anything else back together.

Yes. It is that kind of squeak noise when rolling up. Is the instruction of "fix slow winodws" for fixing this squeak noise?

most likely.... I think the squeak comes from lack of lubrication (at least this is what the door to my basement has taught me). Hit it with some WD40 and you should be good to go.

mines squeaks naaasty but ive never bothered getting to it, notice in the rain it doesnt squeak hence smoother because of the water...

Its a lack of lube..

I forget what you're supposed to use but I know there is a grease Honda uses for windows that seems to last several years. Anyone remember the name??

WD-40 will work temporarily but the squeaky noise will come back. Best thing to do is use grease to lube up the wheels.

The grease is made by Shinetsu (spelling?). It was available from Honda. This is 2nd hand info based on posts I've read on other forums. It supposed to be great stuff for window guide lube. I've always used silicon oil spray w/ good results.

good luck
