I'm guessing this happens to thirdgen owners all the time, so hopefully you guys can point me in the right direction!

My windows are dreadfully slow, especially when using them both at the same time. For one, I don't think that should happen, like they're not drawing enough electricity when they're being used together, which seems like poor electrical design.

Anyways, I figure it means something is worn out or dirty in the window motors or mechanisms, so what can I do to service them and make them work like new? Thanks.

 

You can buy new motors. The old ones are rivited and have to be drilled out. The new ones get attached with screws and nuts.

 

Cool. Do I just go to the parts store and ask for replacements, or is there a certain model or certain place to get them? Thanks.

 

The other most common thing is all the pivot points in the window regulator need to be lubricated .. they tend to dry out, slow the whole thing down, and also eventually burn out the motor.

 

Use white lithium there?

 

Yes, get a spray can of white lithium grease and coat the guide rails and window regulator pivot points with a nice layer of it.
