Moaning window..
My driver's side window has "moaned" ever since a trip to the beach. It's actually less of a moan, and more like nails being scratched on a chalkboard. I plan on having the dealer look at it when I go in for my first oil change. The only problem is the noise is intermittent.
you might also have sand stuck in the regulator grease which would be replaced under warranty... just as long as you can duplicate it at the dealer.
As far as the rest of the 'howling/ moaning' or 'screeching' noises... most of the time these are the belt seals, either inner or outer. either:
1. the seal is worn or defective (prolly bare rubber on glass, usually makes a 'screeching' noise) or
2. the sheet metal opening is too big (there is only light seal contact with the glass which causes the seal to vibrate, usually the 'moaning' or 'howling')

My truck has been doing this since the day I picked it up, I lubed the windows the next day at work and didnt change one thing. I know its the window regulator but I'm just to lazy to change it.
I've got that problem on the passenger window but I attributed it to pine sap on the seal.
