Slow window fix

Ive been neglecting the passenger windows for a while now and decided it was time to try a remedy I heard of here. Silicone spray. It works like a charm. In reality, the tracks need to be cleaned as i think they have dirt and debris from camping/wheeling trips but this has made HUGE improvements. I used WD40 Water resistant silicone.

Spray liberal amounts down the front and rear channels of the affected window

Make sure to place a rag or bucket under the door frame near the drainage holes.

This did wonders for my front and rear passenger windows. The driver window was the only one that really had no issues, although performance increased after lubricating the tracks.

Dear mother of God I need to do this, didn't realize it was this simple.

I forgot to close my windows and turn on air re-circulation while following 3 trucks up a dusty mountain a week ago - I spent 2 hours yesterday vacuuming every square inch of my interior.

Glad to spread info I found here on the forum. I was a bit skeptical at first. My front passenger window seemed too far gone, especially when it was cold. Surely a motor related issue. But no, the results were great.
