Default windows are slow goin up and down.

the ej8 needs work.

the window motors seems abit groggy going down and especially going up. this first begun with the passenger window button. the driverside passenger window button still worked- so i thought it was something i could hold off with. it now is happening to my driverside. i was like hell no.

Its cold up in jersey nowadays. i thought the cold had something to do with it. has anyone else experienced this. any help is appreciated.

They either need lubrication in the channels or new regulators.

Try the cheapest method and use silicone lubricant first and if that dosent do it then its the regulators.

with them in the track works fine. Just spray it into a rag then wipe it into the channel. You may have to do it multiple times, it lubricates and cleans at the same time.
