How to Solve the Problem of Abnormal Noise When Car Window Goes Up and Down?
2 Answers
Go to a professional repair shop to tighten the loose door window. Replace the sealing strip of the car window. Clean up debris in the guide rail. The car window is an important part of the entire body, designed to meet the needs of interior lighting, ventilation, and the driver's and passengers' visibility.
I've encountered the issue of squeaky windows quite a few times, mostly caused by dust buildup in the tracks or aging sealing strips. Here's a simple DIY fix: First, use a toothbrush or soft cloth dipped in alcohol to clean the inner and outer window tracks, removing any mud or small stones. Then, spray some silicone lubricant on the tracks—WD-40 can also work, but avoid spraying it on the glass or electrical components to prevent smudging or short circuits. After lubricating, test the window a few times. If the noise persists, check if the rubber seals along the glass edges are cracked or loose. If they're aged, you can order replacements online and install them yourself, costing just a few dozen bucks. The whole process takes about ten minutes, but remember to turn off the power first to prevent accidental activation. Inadequate lubrication can lead to recurring issues, so regular cleaning is a must.
