Phaeton :: How To Tint The Windows
I took my Phaeton to my car detailer and asked him to tint the windows. He told me that it could not be done unless he removes the door panels and door frame to better acces the edges of the side windows. Do any of you had their windows tinted and how was it done?
View 9 RepliesPhaeton :: Crunch Sound While Windows Are Up?
When I put the driver windows up it reached the very top I heard the sound of plastic snapping and heard several pieces landing inside the bottom of the door. The window seems secure but I am too nervous to see if it will lower for fear it won't go back up.
I looked for some drawings and think a guide may have failed. I plan to remove the door panel and investigate but the pictures from the FAQ section are no longer hosted so looking for a link to a good write-up?
Phaeton :: Power Windows Making Noise When Roll Down And Up
Having issues with the power windows making a funny noise when you roll it down and up? It is happening to the right front and right rear windows. Sounds like something is broken inside. Both windows do go up and down perfect , just thinking its on its last legs and worried one day it wont go back up. The problem is not like a motor burning out, more like something is crackling inside. What is weird both windows have the same noise.

View 6 RepliesCamry :: 2007 - Windows Sticking In Up Position
My '07 CE's windows are sticking badly in the up position. When I hit the button to lower them, especially the front windows, they make a loud POP. The passenger one even stalled out because it was stuck so bad, so I carefully pushed out on it and then lowered it to free it.
I do not roll my windows down often (maybe once every 2 weeks in the fall/winter/spring), but I've never had this problem on any other cars.
I have cleaned the windows (they had a black line on them from where they were stuck), and I put a very light coating of white lithium grease on the black rubber where it was sticking. I think this is working good.
The sticking point is at the top, and it sticks on the inside of the window where it makes contact with the rubber.
Lexus ES 2007-12 :: All Windows Down And Sunroof Open By Itself
A couple weeks ago I went home sick from work, doped up on medication. We ran through the drive through for dinner, and it was really cold out. Woke up in the morning to find ALL my windows down and the sunroof open.......and it snowed about 1/4 inch. My wife went with me and she was sober, and swears that all the windows were up when we went in the house. Now, I am at work and had a customer come in and tell me that my windows were down, and the sunroof was open half way. This time I KNOW FOR A FACT that they were up and the sunroof was closed when I parked it.

I have a 2007 LS I purchased a few months ago. Wind noise from windows is very loud. I applied the jmcraney fix this week - did it exactly as the directions say. Made no difference in wind noise - still get a bunch of wind noise through the windows. My LS has 70k miles so it is out of warranty.

When I put down the rear windows on my 2010 they clunk when they reach the bottom. I've had similar happen on other vehicles and it was the rubber stoppers that needed to be replaced. Wondering what the cost would be (car has 94,000 kms so probably out of warranty).

I'm at 3,200 miles on my 2010 Santa Fe and all is going well except for the fact that every now and again, the interior windows fog up. And I'm not talking about regular fog...this stuff has earned the nickname of ninja fog because it comes out of nowhere and it's impossible to get rid of. It's only happened twice but it doesn't indicate a fault of the automatic climate control. The first time was my fault. I was behind an old Thunderbird and hit the recirculate button to get the stink out. I passed the 'Bird but forgot to turn it back to fresh. The fog was so heavy that it took running the defrost on full blast for [b]15 MINUTES to clear it.
It happened again tonight but came totally unprovoked. I keep the system on automatic and set between 70 and 74 F and tonight I had it set on Auto at 72 when it happened. I was sitting at a red light and all of a sudden, POOF! There it was. Came literally out of nowhere and after running the defrost on high for the rest of the drive home, even the passenger front window was barely half-clear. I noticed the outside temperature gauge went from 44 to 41 - very quickly so I'm wondering if a quick external temperature loss causes the relatively warm inside of the glass to fog up.
Mazda - Cx-7 :: 2007 - Front Windows Down Automatically When Parked
We just bought a used 2007 Mazda CX-7 in Dec 2010. Three times that I've parked the car, only me, no witnesses, and used the remote lock & alarm set, I've come back to car after shopping to find the two front windows down. The first time I thought I must have left them down but it's happened two more times, twice when it's been at night and cold so that I would not be driving with windows down.
View 3 RepliesLexus LS 2007+ :: Wind Noise Coming From Windows When Going 55 Mph Or More
Purchased my LS 460 last week and noticed when going 55 mph or more there was wind noise coming from both the drivers front window and passenger's front window. Decided to go back to the dealer and was told that is a known problem with the LS 460 (not the 460L because I was told they use a different type of glass which apparently has a better seal). You can't hear it with conversation or radio, but if there isn't anything on, it's there. Kinda like when a window is just barely cracked while driving is the sound you hear. I test drove a different LS 460 while at the dealer and was able to verify it too had the same wind noise. The dealer suggested that if there is enough comments made that Lexus would undoubtedly look into a "campaign" to correct the problem. Went online and checked a few review sites by consumers and noticed others had also commented on this wind noise. If you have the LS 460 (not the 460L) check it out...and if you hear it, consider filing it with Lexus Customer Service at 1-800-255-3987. Overall, a great car...things like this can happen with the first year of a body redesign.

I'm loving my recently acquired 2007 LS460 but am wondering about a quirk. After every car wash my drivers window continues to get smeared with water for 3-4 days every time I put it down and up. I've never seen it last this long or this bad on any previous car. Could this indicate some kind of bad seal? I only notice on my drivers window. I'll have to check the others.
View 4 RepliesLexus LS 2007+ :: Hold Key Fob Lock Button To Close Windows?
The other day I got out of the car and forgot to close the windows. So I tried to hold the key fob LOCK button to close them. Nothing. Yet holding the UNLOCK will OPEN them? Now how often will someone want to OPEN windows with the FOB versus close? Put another way, I am assuming that there IS a definitive way to use the FOB to CLOSE the windows/roof but I can't figure it out.
As an aside, I guess I a bit "slow". I JUST figured out, after almost 2 years of ownership, that the CD player will read MP3 files...hundreds on 1 disc versus about 20 song on an old style CD.
Santa Fe (CM - 2007-12) :: Windows Fogging After Changing Cabin Air Filter?
I have a 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe Limited. It has about 104,000 miles on it. This past summer I changed the Cabin Air Filter for the first time.

The window Fog and ice up so much that I can't see out well at times. Even the back windows fog up bad! Defroster on high does nothing!

I have a 2008 LS460L and the front driver's and passenger's windows have wind noise, sometimes worse than others. I also drove a 2007 which experienced the same problem.
