Default Window rattle

is it just me or does everyone's window kind of stutter or rattle when you roll it down after it rains?

everyone's window rattles. i hate it too. its like i can't crack the window. you have to put it about almost half way down till you can hit bumpy roads and it would stop.

Happened in my Civic too. Try some shinitsu grease on the run channel-it helps.

I know yoshi just got done having his windows reworked by Acura under warranty.

JN who is going to take his in while still under warranty becuase his windows don't seem to roll up as speedily as they are supposed to...

My windows started to rattle recently also. But then again, maybe it's because I just put in my stereo system.

My 95 GS-R has this problem pop up every year or so...it's actually easy to fix too.

Just pop off the interior door panel and tighten up the bolts and such...works for me everytime.

Im still working on mine, I have the door panels taken off and am cleaning up the tracks.

Check to see if the rubber lining along side of the window tracks are still in place, this rubber track guides the window up and down and keeps it from rattling. You will notice the problem if you roll your windows about half way and shut the door, this is the window hitting the unlined track, while your at it clean and lubricate with some silicone spray.

BTW I killed my battery while messing with the sunroof (shutting and closing)and I know it will happen to with the window so make sure you start up the car to keep the battery from draining
