Any suggestions? Can this be adjusted or is this just a character building quirk of the car.
Thanx,
Windows hard to roll up after rain

Dont know. When it rains I leave my windows already rolled up.
Maybe a look inside the door panel is in order. I can think to two possibilities:
The mechanism is corroded from years of moisture/salt exposure. Did an '89 Cougar last week, rusted parts were bound up so badly that the gear on the electric motor sheared off its shaft. I bit of P'Blaster to loosen it up, and some wheel bearing grease to keep it that way.

Thanx all - will take the door panel off & have a gander. The previous owner told me that this problem started when the glass had been replaced after a break in. The only way to know what's going on for sure is to take the time to look.
