Do your windows squeak?

When ever i open my drivers side window it squeaks. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this? Not sure if i want to waste a whole day at the dealer to see if they can try and remedy this.

thanks

yeah mine does sometimes, but im %99.9 sure it has something to do with my window tint so I wouldnt even bother taking it to the dealer.

Tint should not cause a squeak unless someone did a really crappy job

It might be something to do with clamps that bring the window down squeaking or maybe even a dirty window...

well heres an update:

I spoke to a friend that works at acura, and asked if this was a common thing. And apparently it is on the TL and TSX. What he recommended is for the window to be cleaned and then to use some automotive wax on both sides of the window. I tried it and it works.

So to any of you guys that may have this problem give it a try it fixed my annoying squeak/stuttter when i rolled the windows down!
