How to Fix Squeaky Power Windows in a Car
by Leonardo R. Grabkowski Shane Stillings/Demand Media
Car windows squeak because the window track comes from the factory with lubricant that eventually wears off after years of use. Getting your car window to stop squeaking is a simple process and can be performed by almost anyone.
Step 1

Remove the door panel below the squeaking window. Use a flat head screwdriver to carefully pop the clips from the door assembly.

Tips
- Be gentle when removing the interior door panel; you don't want to break the clips.
Things You'll Need

- Flathead screwdriver
Warnings
- Be careful to not get lubricant on the power window motor or regulator.
- Use a stray-style spray nozzle to ensure only the window track is coated.
