Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • Golf Mk 6 90TSI- Squeaky Power Window

    I have an annoying squeak on the passenger side front window that squeaks seemingly in sync with revolutions of the internal mechanism. It only seems to happen in hot weather when something in there expands; it disappears at cooler times and at night. I have sprayed WD 40 in the tracks and it made no difference. Everything still works fine , but it is a mild annoyance. Should I just put up with it, or is there a need to remove the door card and dabble internally?

    The squeak is likely due to heat expansion affecting internal components like the window regulator, especially since it disappears in cooler weather. If it's more annoying than problematic, you can leave it, but removing the door card and lubricating the mechanism with silicone grease could solve it.
