Default Annoying!!

For about 5 months now my driver side window has been squeaking whenever I roll it down!

Sometime it is normal and doesnt squeak, but I would say about 80% of the time my window makes the most annoying squeaking noise!

This noise is pretty loud too. For instance if I have a passenger in my car, they usually laugh at it... Haha.

I have washed my car many times, and I have no idea what to do or how to fix it?

Im very confused...

Could be several things on a window. They have some felt or cushion in the rails they go up and down in, they have slides at the top to guide it and there are mechanical parts that go up and down. Only way to tell for sure is to take the door panel off and find the noise. You might try spraying some WD-40 or some grease in there with the window up, might get lucky and hit a part that is making the noise.

Need to be lubricated and sometimes replace parts for wear and tear. Probably out of adjustment some too if the parts are worn.
