I used a teflon based spray called tri flow. I sprayed the tracks and anything that moved or pivots when I had the door panel off. works great now.

It's a known warranty issue. If you're under 50,000 miles, just get the dealer to do it.
Sweet. I didn't know that. Guess I'll be taking mine in.
Mine rolls up slow as ****.

I applied silicon lube to no avail

yshi - whose window gets stuck near the top so he's taking 234 into the dealer to get it fixed before the warranty runs out

had my driver's window done a week ago at the 30K mile service. the passenger side was good as new but the driver's was slower. i picked the car up and the window was screaming to the top

Whatever you do, do not use a petrolium based product. I have used Tri Flow in my window tracks. It helps temporarily, but petrolium eats rubber, so it will get worse over time.

Funnily enough, the best product I have used for long term window happiness is KY Jelly on the tip of a Q-tip.
