In nice and warm conditions, the opening or closing of the LH front window gives an annoying, loud squeaky noise.

I assume it must be some rubber panel, which expands because of the heat and rubs against the window.

Any suggestions or experiences how to get rid of it?

Any input or suggestions on this topic would be received with gratitude!

Would any one happen to have an exploded view of the door where it is possible to see the various rubber parts, which would be touching the glass when it slides up or down?

Hi Madst,
Try cleaning the rubbers and the inside of te window with water and old fashioned soap, don't use a chemical cleanser. Subsequently treat the rubbers with talcum powder.

Good luck, Robert

Ps: you could've asked your wife, you probably would've gotten the same answer

Thanks, Robert. I wonder why my wife didn't think of that (it is mainly her driving the car)
