Hello,

I once had a mechanic bring me an 1800 dollar estimate to replace all the motors and window channels on a car that was doing the same thing. My simple solution was greasing/oiling the window channels on the offending window(s). As far as I know, the customer is still driving it. Any electrical motor will draw more power as it ages and wears, but having sticky window channels would definetly exascerbate the situation. You may also notice that your windows will wind up and down quicker.

Give that a try first before thinking of megabucks.

Happy Bricking!!!
