l75eya Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 (edited) As can be seen in the (evidently humungous) photograph above, when I use the power windows in the Loyale, lately, the rubber will get pulled downward with the glass, making the window motor strain. I've lightly oiled the window before and that worked for a good 2 months, but it's happening again. This happens to all the windows except the driver's side. Does anybody have a good suggestion on how to prevent this? Edited April 14, 2014 by l75eya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discombobulated Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 I think you can adjust the rollers from the inside on how much pressure is on the window, possibly just adjust a smudge of pressure either on the outer roller or the inner one? That sounds like it might help but again just a guess might tinker with one window before oiling again, I just got my windows tinted and was worrying about the rollers damaging the tint but the inside rollers don't seem to touch the windows as much as the outside.

ruparts Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 hi, i had good success with this problem by opening the gap on the top of the door itself. the sheet metal inside upper edge where the door trim panel is held, i just took slip joint pliers and bent the metal back to move the edge back away from the glass "a little", all the way across the door, this let that rubber have more room. and it didn't grab any more like your pic shows. you might have good success with the glass adjustment with the rollers but i didn't so another point of view.

MR_Loyale Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 (edited) I have the exact same problem. Let us know what works. For me it is just the driver side. Edited April 14, 2014 by MR_Loyale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somick Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 As far as I know rubber does not like oil. Before adjusting anything I would try silicone spray.<br /><br />Good luck,<br /><br />Sam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
