Default passenger window

Does anyone else have their passenger window move slower than their driver's window? Because mine does. Does it mean I have to replace the regulator or what? I also noticed at high speeds, you can hear the wind, so it seems as if the window doesn't close all the way.

Spray the **** out of the tracks with a silicone. See if it helps

YES.
I have a '99 ex coupe and my passenger side window goes about 75% of the speed of the driver's side. They are both pretty slow too.

I sprayed the tracks of the passenger side with some bicycle chain lube ( t9) and that helped.. it's more like 85% of the speed of the driver's side window now. That old lube is crusty as hell! It's hard to get to the lubrication points too.. suprised that my sunroof still operates

Power windows are still super slow when the engine is shut off. maybe that's normal. Any ideas?

You may want to get a tube of silicone grease (preferably the Shin-Etsu stuff you can get from a dealership or something equivalent) and lube them using it. The spray tends to evaporate quickly, while the grease leaves a film behind.

The trick to using grease is you can't just throw it into the track and call it a day, you need to wipe out the excess grease. Either have a thin rag, a bunch of QTips, or something similar on hand. And a little grease goes a long way.

BTW, on a Sol the roof seals benefit greatly from grease. I can either grease them twice a year or spray every month to get the same quiet results. But the polycarbonate roof flexes way more than stock.
