Mine have been getting slower and slower. The motor I know is fine, but I think I need to lube whatever moves the windows. What do I lube and how do I get to this?

Thanks!
 
take your door pannel off u will see the track with the roller in it grease it up. it also helps to use dish soap in the rubber tracks..
hope this helps i need to do the same thing..:D
 
Do I need special lube for the rollers or can I simply use WD40? How do I take the door panels off? Last time I tried this I removed all the screws, but couldn't get it off, plus I couldn't get it back on. :o

What is the correct way to do this?
 
I believe that once you have all of the door panel screws out that you pull the panel up a bit to unhook from where the window goes down and it will pull off.
 
Just like said above they com off easily, might take a lil umf to pull em up. It might be better to put the window down and squeeze the rubber by the window to release the clips. Put the window up and clean the tracks, use some lithium grease on the tracks/rollers and put the window up and down a few times you should see them go easier. Thats the way i did it and they work good. There are a few here that know better ways to do it but it worked for me.
