Well it seems when you hit the down button for the electric windows the window goes down correctly. However, when you come up, about 90% of the way up I notice the front of the window starting to dip down a little and the top rear start pulling away from the weather stripping. Sometimes it closes correctly, but most of the time the window either jumps the weather stripping (about 90% of the way up - top rear portion of the window is on top of the weather stripping lip), or you see a small gap between the top rear part of the window and the weather stripping. If you grab the window and pull back it will seat in correctly.

I lubed up the tracks in the window and it seemed to help for a while, but I am wondering if something is worn out? If so, which part would it be, and how hard is it to replace? Thanks!!!

Honda sells two special lubes for the runchannel....one a silcone spray, the other a kind of a paste, it has a crazy name called Shin-Etsu

Thanks! However, why does the window "dip" to the front when the window is almost 90% closed? I thought maybe a guide bushing/track or something similar. Thanks again!

It dips because it's sticking on the front part, very very common issue

Sticking in the rubber weather stripping channel? I took the door off and lubed the track with a silicon spray. I also sprayed some silicon down the weather stripping track - front and rear, which seemed to help, but now the problem has returned. I thought it might be something else. Thanks!

There are different qualities of spray...that is why i always use Honda brand. That paste is right from Japan, and lasts a lot longer

Ok, will try to pick some up...

Where does the lube go? In the weather stripping channel or main channel inside the door behind the panel?
