Yep. Goes down regular speed, comes back up about half way, quits. Only in the winter months, tho. Crazy. Have to lift on it with one hand while pushing the button with the other.

Guides need some lube. Not sure what the dealer used but we had this prob when the car was pretty new. They probably used some silicone spray but I'm not 100% sure that's what they used.

I read a TSB a while back, it said to use silicone spray lube on the window channels. One can of that stuff will last the better part of a lifetime, I only did my tracks one time on the Vic.

Purchased my Marauder with 28600 miles on it from a dealer and the CAR FAX said the only problem was the driver's window tracks were re-lubed.
The lubrication must be problem from the factory.

At 35,000 miles I could not opened the hood. Same thing, inadequate lubrication. Now, I use the white lithium grease spray on the hood catch occasionally.
