    My trucks been doing this from day one pretty much. Just about everytime I roll my windows down they squeek. Is this happening to everyone else? Is it an easy fix?

    Mine usually only squeaks when it's dry and hot outside. I'm in for a solution tho

    I'm guessing it's able to be "lubed" (like sunroof) just not sure what kind or what points might need greased.

    My exact thought, but I feel like any lubricant put on the windows will leave traces when put down and back up

    Not sure what particular noise you're hearing, but we used air to blow out the window slides & then used dry silicone lubricant spray to lube them at the shop I worked at. Helped the windows go up quicker

    It's the window seal that runs along the bottom on the door

    Ah, yeah, mine makes nasty scraping noises - seems to pick up dirt immediately and then scratches the glass with it. I'd just roll the window down and clean the seal where it contacts the glass
