are anyone else's backseat windows slow when going down and going up? mine seem to be pretty slow

 

Yeah.. mine are really slow too..

 

Both of mine are slow too. I'm hoping my 140a alt will help somewhat. I need to dsimantle the doors and have a looksie...

 

Seems to be a 4runner thing, 2nd gen anyway.. my freinds windows are real slow too.

 

Here too, although not as slow as the 3.0.
I think they are all this way on 2nd gens.

 

Here is a thread that I started a while back about the slow rear windows.

It suggests using a silicone based lubricant to spray down the side of the of the tracks for the window. I did it and it helped the problem.

Give that a shot.

 

cool guys, glad to see im not the only on here...and agrunner..ill give that a shot!. thanks!

 

mines slow and it squeaks too

 

Not to hijack your thread but does anyone else have problems with using the key to roll the back window up and down. Mine doesnt want to work without 10 minutes of coersion!

 

mine sticks a little, but then so do all the other locks, i just use WD40. sometimes the window doesnt respond, but after 2 or 3 tries it struggles to roll itself up and down... it wont stay on its own anymore though, i have to hold the key turned all the way.

 

The tumblers of the lock cores on our Runners are made from "pot-metal". After years of use, they get trashed. I just received a new set of tumblers from TOR on the board here. He works for Toyota of Richardson (TX). My side door locks and rear tailgate lock quit working some time ago. I was having trouble with the ignition too, so I had to bite the bullet. One of my weekend projects...

 

Ive got bigger issues right now than the rear window lock...here

 

ah a volkswagon, thats funny

id be too if i was in your situation
