Slow electrics?

Recommended Posts

Erm bit odd this

 

the electrics on my car appear to be 'slow'

 

The passenger window is fine but the drivers one takes AN AGE to go up or down

 

The roof is so slow it times out, though robin will look at this for me as he thinks it might be fluid.

 

The aerial might not come up for a whole minute after I turn in the radio (and sometimes shoots up straight away)

 

THIS IS WHY PEOPLE NEED TO USE THEIR CARS!!!!!

 

For gods sake :facepalm:

 

Any way

 

Any ideas???

Runners need greasing on the window. Same with aeriel too. Wack some wd down that and it will be fine I'm sure. The more u use it the better it will get mind

On the 916 (GTV and Spider) the door window regulators, just like on the 930, 932 and 937 series suffer from corrosion of the motor, this slows it right down and in serious cases stops it altogether, greaseing the runners is the worst thing you can do as this attracts the dirt and just jams the window even more, as for WD40, I wouldn't even put a can of that stuff in the boot, let alone pop the top and use any.

Ask Tony156 how bad his window was and what I did to resurect that.

It's still something that needs sorting, what's best to do? Take it out and clean it up?
