• Vauxhall Cavalier (1988 - 1995) - stiff electric windows. 21 Aug 2007 (Forum)
  Do I need to lubricate anything to make the electric windows go up and down easier? They are sluggish at certain spots, and the n/s/f creaks when partly wound down. I'd rather not take the doors apart if at all possible! I notice that pulling up on the windows by hand when closing them helps them
