are any of you guys noticing that when you roll your windows down for the first time during the day, it makes a loud noise when breaking from the window seal? ii notice this cause i also have a 2010 rx350 and that has i know virtually no window noise cause they put that thing where it slows down when sealing itself, but im talking about taking the window down. why is my is-f so loud when rolling down initally? it has def. gotten worse than from day 1, obviously but i think it is a bit too loud for normal. sounds 10x louder than my 2004 car. and the f is a 2008.

tint can really make such a dramatic difference? i dont think so,cause this is just plain loud.

I checked mine after reading this and, after sitting for a week, there was no undue noise when putting the windows down.

Think about it,, tint is plastic,, the rubber seals on your car will stick somewhat to tint if it sits unmoved for a long time.. Non tinted owners will not have this problem,, cause glass will not stick to rubber like tint. You wont have that problem if your car uses felt instead of rubber seals cause felt dont stick to tint...

my girls F does this also and she has no tint.
seems as if its tearing away from the rubber.

I am having the same problem with an '07 Camry! Tried cleaning the window really good where it seals, but I am scared to apply anything directly to the rubber/felt. Have read on other threads that applying silicon based lubricant helps but not really sure if I want to? Had a Volvo that this issue led to bending the arms on the window motor(2 different times). Let me know if you find anything out.
