Default Pass Rear quarter window squeaks!!!!!!

Curious if anyone has had this issue and if they were able to lube the seal or something to remedy.

I'm pretty tollerable to rattles and what not but the rear quarter window on my car is squeaking in possibly the most annoying pitch ever. If you press out on it the window goes silent.

...and yes I'm complaining about this on a car with solid suspension and muffler bypass pipes which don't bother me nearly as much as this darn window squeak

Take it to a reputable windshield / glass shop and have them remove it and reseal it. Should run about $60-80.

Not sure I could hear a window squeak over all of the other noises, including the roll bar creaking.

ohhhh...trust me. I forget for a minute I even have muffler bypass pipse on the car when the window is going crazy.

Funny thing is I drove it to work this morning and it barely made a peep?

Pretty common on the 996 platform.

I think Porsche may have an updated seal.

I dont think its expensive and you should be able to tackle the replacement.
