I know this has been discussed at some length before, but both front windows on my A3 have just started to rattle/creak when shut, and if I lower them by a millimetre it stops. I've tried some of the suggestions previously posted - rubbing soap, washing-up-liquid, vasaline, etc all round the felt/rubber seals at the top but it still persists. When I rinsed it all away with water the noise stopped, but soon started up again when the water had dried. Presumably it's the rubber seal/felt that's dried out and is rubbing on the glass?
I'm now resigned to the fact that it'll have to go to a dealer, so can anyone who's taken their car in before to fix this let me know exactly what work the dealer did so that I can give them some ideas? The sting in the tail is that the warranty ran out two weeks ago on my car - and the rattling started the day after! So I'll have to pay up for any "repairs". Thanks.
