Frozen Doors

Do Tacomas suffer for Frozen Doors Like other Toyotas?

 

My doors R hard 2 open sometimes but they do open - my electric windows didn't open the other day until it warmed up.

 

Coat all your door seals with a good silicone protectant like 303 and you'll have less of this. It's good for them anyway.

 

I have 303 but don't always put it on the door seals - thanks 4 reminding me. Merry Christmas 2 U and yours.

 

Same to you fellow Jerseyian.

 

303 I googled it and it came up with UV Protectant, Marine Protectant, Multi Surface Cleaner Spray, All Purpose Cleaner for Home, Patio and Outdoor,
Fabric Guard, Upholstery Protector, Water and Stain Repellent. Which one do I want?

 

Mine have never been frozen or hard to open.

Didn't realize frozen doors was a Toyota feature.

 

I've always used Armorall on the Door Seals & Wiper Blades to stop Icing/ Freezing.

 

Something I do at least once a year is apply a spray silicone in each of the inner window tracks. Before the cold weather set in, I noticed my passenger side window had a hard time going up recently, with a gritty sound. After applying the silicone it was gliding up and down smoothly. I also spray my doors gaskets before winter with the same silicone spray and never been frozen out, especially after we just had a good ice storm.

 

X2 !

 

So the easiest thing 2 do is move to SC

 

Good security feature on the tacomas. Prevents theft.

Who needs a stinking alarm

 

In nearly 7 years of ownership, I've never experienced a frozen door.

 

Tire shine is thicker and lasts longer on door seals (spray the wheel houses so ice won’t stick, as well) Spray tire shine down the snow blower chute to keep it from clogging. Edit: or move to SC

 

If you are smart, Yes.
