Squeaky windows after rain - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

A weird occurance happened to me after it rained. I have a 07 Camry SE, after it rains, when i try to lower the front two windows, it squeaks. And the outside part of the window is wet.

Now I have recently got tints on all my windows, so I first thought of a bad installation problem. But then the rear two windows are perfectly fine.

I think I should open the doors myself and see whats wrong, maybe a punctured window seal, or one of those weather proof seals? The tint guy possibly have never done a 07 camry, so he may have messed the front two windows up. I havent' opened the doors of the 07 camry, but I'll look through the manuals.

Any other opinions on the cause of this?

Why not just take it to the dealer and have them inspect in under warranty?

I had this problem- after a car wash or rain when putting the front windows up, they squeaked for a bit (near the middle of the rolling up). I took it to my dealer they said that there were faulty rollers; they replaced the rollers in both front windows, but i still have a problem with the passenger side.

Also i see a slight haze in the front portion of my driver side window adjacent to the mirror. I'm trying to find out why this occurs as well.

Check that the inner lining isn't inside out. That's what happened to my driver's side window after tinting.

Before I discovered this, the dealer declared that I needed a new window regulator. But before they could do it, I found out the inside lining was inside out. I fixed it myself and the squeaking went away once the rubber "cured" back to its proper shape.

Yeah, that was my exact problem. I noticed it a few days ago and pulled it up with a flathead slowly and it was perfect. Thanks for the update on this though!
