Anyone tried racing their windows?
If you drop both sides simultaneously, does anyone else find that one drops a lot faster than the other? My drivers side is down and the passenger side is passing through half way... it seems to be getting progressively slower as time goes by, like the motor is burning out. Just wondering though if the auto-down has anything to do with the driver side killing the passenger side.

Ya - mine do that too....it's the motor...Not that anything is wrong with it though...Someone told me that it has to do with the auto mechanism on the driver side...Either way, nothing is wrong with them so no worries.

Both of mine go down the same speed, and both are pretty quick too. I've read other people complaining on how slow the windows are, maybe I got a lucky upgrade.

Push the passenger side window button, on the passanger side.
If one is still slower it is not the wire .

hmm...I never would have even thought of paying attention to that...
My windows go up and down fast as hay! I love it.
Maybe try lowering them seperately and see if it still goes down slow. Check the track as someone else mentioned. I don't think there is track but a channel or something it goes up and down in. I don't think the dealer will consider it a problem unless it moves at snail speed or stops working.
Let us know if you resolve the issue!
