Hey guys,

I've noticed these few days the driver side window keeps on taking its time to go down/up. Any ideas?

Thanks
Perry

yup, bailey channels, how old is the car? try lubing up the baileychannels with graphite powder, silicone spray etc

need to lube them up perry..

normally the rain does that to it.. takes all the lube from the rubber things.

my passenger window does it all the time!

if it gets too stuck all the time, it will put too much stress on the power window motor and might burn it out. so if to the point where lube dont work you've gotta replace the channels, i think it costed roughly $300 from honda, for my ek

+1 for silicone spray in the channels,i do mine every 6-9months & they always work like new ones in my 17 year old POS.

+ silicone spray is the best tin of wonder stuff u'll ever buy

thanks guys

But sometimes it gets stuck half way could be the same reason.
