What I mean is my power windows have seemed to slow down a fair bit over the ages and I would like to get them back up to speed!
A couple of suggestions I have been given (but am yet to try): Silicone spray surrounding seals Lubricate window tracks Replace / recondition the motors (not too keen on that one) Mini NOS kit for my windows However, I am more after as quick a fix as possible (i.e. something that doesn't require me to remove all the door trims, motors, etc). Does anyone have any suggestions, or has anyone done anything about a similar power window speed issues? --------------------  |

i know another reason for the slower windows. The reason is the trim itself at the base of the window hardening over time. Once this trim has lost its flexiblitly it will drag on the window and give the motors more work. What you can do is replace the trim. I dont know the part number or the cost.
