window seal squeek on an '07

I just did a search on my window seal squeek and came up with a few hits on '04 window squeeking. nobody mentioned a solution.

Is this something i can take to a dealership and somehow get them to fix? Or is it as stupid-easy as just putting some kind of lube inside the window seals?

I had something similar happen in my '04 TSX, and they replaced the window actuator or something (under warranty work), apparently is the part that controls the window going up and down, they also lubricated all the necessary areas.

squeak

Maybe you should have spelled it correctly.


You can take it to the dealership and they will "lube" the window seal channels. It will work for 3-4 months and then slowly come back. Some folks recommend using spray silicone lubricant, which worked for me for only 2-3 weeks. Apparently the dealer uses a thicker version, something like silicone grease. It lasts longer but not forever.

Ha-ha, shouldn't it be a part of scheduled maintenance?

I have an 07 and I do get the squeek on the drivers side. Washed it up real good on the inside with stoners and no more sqeeks for the last 5 months.
