Default How to Grease Window?

My drivers side front power window squeeks and squeels horribly whenever I roll it down...it is so loud that I dred opening it...it's kinda like finger nails on a chalk board...but louder...everytime I roll it down I cringe as the sound goes right down my spine...

Can someone please advise me on how to properly remove the door panel and where to grease...At first I thought that something was stuck in the rubber...but I have checked it out and made sure that it is spotless..When I roll the window up it seems to be moving slower than normal...so something is clearly restricting it.

Please help...if someone has pics I would appreciate it. If not if someone could please descriptively advise me on how and where to grease. (I'm assuming white lithium grease.)

My dealer is actually really, really good. Just had a warranty claim the other day, no questions asked.

In the meantime, throw a little mud on that window and see if it helps

I agree, I bet your dealer will take care of it.

The stealership I'm getting my Jeep through seems to be pretty cool. I don't know how they are about mods yet though. The only bad thing is, they are 2.5 hrs away from where I live.

Now that would be funny. I can't imagine the blank looks you would get from them. Like, what are we supposed to do with this?
