lately i've noticed when using auto up on my windows one or the other sometimes goes back down when it gets to about half way up. doesn't happen that often, but it's becoming more frequent than it used to.

they seem to 'jerk' on their way up..i'm guessing they're either dirty, the rubber seals at the bottom of the windows is dirty, or the motor's are having trouble pushing the windows up...

anybody have this problem before or got any ideas to fix it?

hehehe... i'll see if the old man has any at home, it's quite likely that he will, otherwise it's a trip to the hardware...
