Default damn window

the driver window rolls up fine, but the passenger window rolls up sometimes half the speed of the speed of the driver one. i talked to a guy at the acura dealership and he told me that having aftermarket tint (which i do have) causes this. is this complete bullshit, cuz the other window rolls up fine. do yall have this same problem? i heard that u can spray some lubricant to make it roll faster but, that sounds gh377o

thats what most dealerships do if you complain of this problem to them. Yours is odd

They should at least offer to l00b it for you. It's either the track or the mechanism that gets gummed up, can't remember which

On my GSR my driver window always seems to get stuck. Like right when I go to roll it down or up after it has been sitting like that for a while, it kinda cracks and jerks. It is very annoying, and only happens right at first. The passenger side is always perfect. Do I just need a lube job?

Same problem, took it to Acura, they "lubed" it up, doesn't work much better. That's honda electric windows in a nutshell. Poor window motors seem like a fair trade-off for the engineering you get in the rest of the car if you ask me, so I'll accept it.

...or, you can keep the revs up @ 1000-1200 while activating the window.

LOL! What's with the "tit" conversion?
