Dear Doctor: I own a 2005 and a 2009 Acura TL. They both have the same power window problem. The windows do not go up properly with the push of the button. The dealer said both cars would need new window motors at a great expense. What can I do? Matt
Dear Matt: Before spending money replacing window motors, I recommend that you lubricate the window rubber channels with a silicone spray. We use a Ford lubricant called mini-vent window lubricant. It comes in a 4-ounce plastic container and costs about $15 — and is worth every penny.
