I'd say grease your pole, so to speak. :laugh: Slap some grease on the mechanism and WD40 any joints etc, that's what I'd do first.

wen i wind the windows down its realy tight untill they get about 8inches from the top and then it gets easyer (still hard to wind) and the same wen i wind them back up(gets tight about 8inches from the top)
