Driver's Window Sluggish on Manual Lifting and Lowering WD40 or something else?
#11
It's very easy, just be careful taking off the door panel as it has very weak tabs. You have to take all the screws out and then lift it up and out. There's no telling how many door panels out there that have broken off tabs. This whole job should take you an hour or so, a few beers, and a couple 4 letter words.
i copied and pasted this as an ms word doc to apply it after sharing it with my backyard mechanic who does not like working on american cars.
thank u again

yup did my Drivers window on my 99 v6 last year ,if you dont have all the right tools an do windows every day , it does help to have 3 hands me an my friend did mine with few swears too, we hooked it to go express up instead of down,when it rains goes up faster ,though express up down i could do without ,i allways buy a new regulator with the motor attached ,though you have manual wich would be simple when compared to power ,i wish i had manuals all the way around in my cars

update: o'reilly's version of wd 40 i forgot the name of the product. (i can look for it to help out others similarly situated) sprayed after shaking the can vigorously down the slit of the window, letting it stay there for a while, wiping off runoff. and then after several minutes puling up the window and down REALLY REALLY HELPED. i might not need new door parts. thanks everyone

its realy a prettty simple job the wd may only be temp fix ,i would say all you need to do is take the door cover off bye lifting up on the bottom of the cover there should be 4 clips on the bottom 2 on the side with a regular srcewdriver carefully lift up an out ,or a interior tool kit can be had for like $10.00 ,there made of plastic so you dont scratch anything ,then lift if off you should be able to clean up an re greace the door in less then 20 minutes or the time it took me to write this hehehe,when i first came hear i had paid others to do alot of my work but now i can do most work myself ,an save a ton on small jobs
