My rear passanger windows squeals like a stuck pig and it drives me nuts. I need to know what to do to stop it. I thought about squirting baby powder? Mine squeals i'm guessing from the felt window guards, although it works fine. I was searching for this post and glad I found this. I knew I'm not the only one with this annoying problem.

I read on the internet from other people having this problem its the little poly plastic wheels.Their is four of them and all you do is remove the panel and lube them up with white lithium grease.Easy fix!

Pull the door panel off, and loosen the two clamps that hold the glass in. Make sure it's lined up (pick the glass up into the runners and drop it back down. Tighten her up and see if it helps.
