Default Squeaky windows - ok to use WD40?
Hi all. The power windows on my audi are squeaking when I roll them down. Is it ok to use WD40 on them? Anyone have any better idea? They sound really "dry".

Thanks!

Default definitely dont use wd-40, go to your dealer they use some type of window treatment
that will get rid of the annoying squeak.

Default Don't think so.
Perhaps you're thinking of Stabilant electrical contact enhancer.

Default what is the process exactly to lube the windows?
do you need to take off the door panel and get to the inner workings?
