That said, I'm going to try some of the solid suggestions posted earlier in this thread.
Hi Phil,

I also tried using a clay bar on the glass which is supposed to remove contaminates but it made the squeak worse. I also tried auto gleam glass polish and still had no effect. I will try rain ex next as suggested by fpb111 i will post how I get on.

Cheers Roo

Sorry to hear that. It certainly seems environmental. I've driven mine every day for 6 months and then suddenly last week my first squeak ever (and pretty bad) and then disappeared the next day without me doing anything. But I will work on it 1st chance I get.
