996 window weather stripping
zjones replied to zjones's topic in 996 Series (Carrera, Carrera 4, Carrera 4S, Targa)
I ended up treating the seals with tire shiner (recommended by a detailer) and the window with Rain-x. The windows function like new. -
I am having issues lowering both front windows on my cabrio. The weather stripping is catching on the windows and curling under as the windows are lowering. It is happening on both the driver and the passenger side windows and seems to have started abruptly. Check out the pictures for a better explanation. Is this the first sign of the weather stripping going bad? The seal it self appears to be fine. This is causing so much extra friction on the window that I am afraid I will burn out the regulators with continued use. The pictures show the problem within the first inch or two of the window coming down. By the time the window gets half way down the whole piece of rubber has curled under and causes the window to move at a snails pace (cant be good for the motor either) All I can think is they need to be cleaned or lubed in some way or that they are in need or replacement. Any ideas?
