i leak, too. i guess it comes with being an older car. make sure its not your windshield as it can be removed and reapplied with new weather stripping.

Same here, although some silicon spray in the channels can help insure the windows close.

Well if your windows roll all the way up, it's not the window it self. Sounds to me that the weather stripping along the door frames need some replacing. Check to make sure there seated in the groove properly. It could possibly be the windshield, but i doubt it. Just check out those doors first, and let me know. I had the same problem when i installed my Window Visors but it took 5mins to fix

Yeah either replace the weather stripping or get some window visors.

I replaced the stripping and I lube it with silicone spray every once in a while and it's all good now. It was pretty noisy before.


But it's never gonna be perfectly quiet, it's only a civic dx.

Check window alignment in the track. It can be moved around a bit by maneuvering the bolts on the regulator.

kkkwell i checked how it goes in to the weather strippin... as it goes in from the back it fitts in thr perfectly...but from the front closer to the windshield it goes up all the way but not up enough to go into the weatherstripping...but when i tightly tighten the handel(thr manualy) it goes it but still leaks a bit...im sure its my windows not the windshield....btww do window visors help? couse i havea friend with a 98 dx and he had the same problem he put on the visors and no luck keeps leaking.....the only things i can think of is my windows need to b aligned or my weather strepping need to b changed even tho it seems to b in perfect condition( so i dont think its that...)
