My passenger front window will go up fine till it gets about half way then it drags ass and some times will even stop.

Bad motor?

Mine pass side has been slow since I got it & it's never gotten worse. Just in the middle of the roll-up or roll-down. I'm thinking I may just need to lubricate/clean the tracks.

Guess it cant hurt to wipe the track out and lubricate it... wonder what I should use?

@carcrz no mine are not hooked up to an alarm..yet. I have everything to do it though, just cant find someone to do the install for less than $600

I'm curious about what you'd use to lube it as well. The reason being is that my sunroof tends to stop about 3/4's the way back when opening and I have to hit the button a second time to get it to open all the way. I believe this may have to do with needing to be cleaned and lubed as well.... :shrug:
