This is a well-known issue and I've done a bit of Googling around to find quick fixes and ways to prevent it. What prompted this is quickly reaching into my car for something this morning and finding the door wouldn't properly close because the window hadn't dropped.
A common suggestion is to "use a silicone spray (or Gummi Pflege) on the seals".
However, I was wondering if somebody could add clarity to what this actually means? Does it mean to spray it all around the seals from the outside, inside or both? Is it all around or just the lower seal? Do I also need to cover the border of the glass with this?
My plan right now is to spray the silicone in between the window and the entirety of the outside seal, leave it to sink in and then wipe any excess that has dripped down onto the window (due to spraying the top part of the seal).
Not a very complicated question I know but I'd like to clarify this before I go full derp mode on the car.
