Hey guys, hows everyone going??

Was wondering how to fix noisy power windows.
Could i do it my self, or would i have to 2 take my car to an auto electrician?

BTW i own an Ek hatchback.

try silicon spray on the inside of the rubber seals.
That will fix the problem as alot of the sound is the engine trying too hard to get the glass up.

Is it both windows or just the one? Has one of them been replaced at any stage?

Sounds like the motor might be dying

Auto Electrician is your best bet. Honda will probable (maybe) have seen the problem more often. Lube up the windows first and see what that does
