i have an 04 X, and when i slow down or start to accelerate from a stop, the area above the rear right window creaks. when i pick up some speed, around 5-7 mph, its gone, but it comes right back when i start from a stop or slow speed again. is this a known issue?

 

Creaking windows is but not sure about how speed affects it. I've had my right rear window fixed twice at the dealer over the last 2 years. It's just starting to come back - yea! It seems to make the most noise when I leave from work which is strange. Sometimes just lowering the window and putting it up helps. If that doesn't work, I just bump it down a hair.

 

hmm.. i mean it creaks like those doors in haunted houses lol, really annoying haha

 

I think I had the same problem...Try taking your door panel apart and tighten the screws and make sure nothing is loose in side your door panel.

I have that sound too. I'm almost positive it's window related. When the windows are down, even just an inch it'll stop. Just add that to the list for when I go back for service.

 

it's a known problem for the 04 sedan...so on my car the dealer was able to strategically place felt (or sponge) shims in specific areas - took a couple of times back to the dealer but it's been problem free for a couple of years now... you might want them to check the TSB for 04 sedan and try the same thing for your car...

 

Have not had that problem.

 

I got mine fixed under warranty. It is a TSB and a known issue.

 

yes it's a known issue with the rear window bolts that connect to the motor that drives it. They get loose and when the car pulls it creaks over the bolts. Known TSB I had it too

 

alrighty, got this fixed at the dealership yesterday. it was the "faulty rear window to regulator bolts" and as said above, covered by the warranty... and WOW, the car is quiet now lol

 

i have this problem on my 05 sedan....never knew i could get a problem so minor like this fixed under warranty.. takin mine to the dealership soon

 

lol nice... i have an 05 with the same problem, left rear window creaks esp when i'm going up/down driveways

annoying as hell!

 

yeah, its gotta be those regulator bolts.. get 'em fixed and you'll love how quiet it is lol

 

Tutty, I have the same problem you just described, I mean exactly the same. Will the dealership know what the problem is? Did they play dumb, or were they able to figure out the problem?

 

im going to take my car in for warranty also, i have it on my right rear window.
