Sometimes anti-social, always anti-fascist.
Anyone successfully dealt with this?

More info:
It is worse in hot weather, I assume there is some rubber that expands in the heat and I can see the 'track' on the windows where they make contact with the roller after it has rained.
 
Open the windows and spray some silcone spray in the window tracks. Should sort the noise out.

Do the windows take long to open as well? If so, it may be the motor/internal mechanisms that needs attention. If all windows are slow, it usually points to an electrical fault like grounding, in which case. You need to visit an auto-electrician.

They work fine apart from the noise... I'll try the silicone spray suggestion - thanks!
