How to Solve the Problem of Window Noise?
2 Answers
Here are the specific causes and solutions for window noise: 1. Component aging: Turn on the switch button, observe the movement track, and check if there is any obvious up and down fluctuation. If there is, it should be due to component aging, and the only solution is to replace the component. 2. Foreign objects: After long-term use, it is inevitable that there will be some debris particles on the slide rail. When moving on the slide rail, friction with these debris can cause noise. Open the lubricant and apply it to both sides of the slide rail. 3. Loose screws: Loose screws can cause noise in the roof and sunroof, and even pose a risk of falling off. Tightening the screws can solve the problem.
I used to have the same issue with my car window making annoying squeaking and creaking noises when rolling it up or down. After checking, I found a lot of dust and small stones accumulated in the tracks. I cleaned them thoroughly using an old toothbrush dipped in water, then sprayed some dedicated window lubricant, which basically solved the problem. Aging sealing strips are another common cause – if they feel hard or have cracks, applying some rubber protectant can soften them and prevent friction noises. For loud electric window noises with strong vibrations, it might be due to loose motor screws or rusted regulator rails, try tightening them manually. Don’t underestimate this issue – prolonged neglect could lead to the window getting stuck, affecting emergency escape. Usually, pressing the button gently when closing the window and regularly cleaning and lubricating the tracks can prevent noise recurrence, saving both money and hassle.
