Hi All,

This is my first post here at Mini 2. I recently bought a Mini Cooper 2007.

The one thing I've noticed is that when it's warm, and sometimes even when it's not so warm the front drivers side window is really slow to go up and down, sometimes stopping. I've figured it's the seal that the window goes through as it comes up.

I've been reading that I could lubricate the seal with a Dry Lubricant with PFTE in? I'm not 100% and don't want to go spraying this stuff all over the seal if it's going to mess the window up, etc?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the link. I've read online that it can damage paintwork if you get it on there!

I know it probably sounds a silly question but; will it still leave the windows clear and unmarked?

Thanks for the advice... Much appreciated!
