MY02 WRX Window Draft.
Getting a draft / noise occuring on the drivers window.
Its only started happening the last few days.
Get into the car, start driving and then you can hear a draft coming from the window. I open the window, then close it and it stops.
Then again, once i get out and get into the car and drive it starts again, open and close window and it stops.
Propper weird.
No splits etc on any of the seals.
Is there anything i can put over the seals, any lubricant etc.
Anything is worth trying i suppose. Any ideas ?
Thanks
Marc.

Yeah I'll have a look aswell. Do you get a sqeaky window also? Mine seems to rub against something within that triangle, think I might have to take it apart.

Gents,
This may or may not help.
The MY01/02 have a recurring problem with the window winder mechanism. What happens over a period of time is that several of the bolts holding the electic winder mechanism loosen themselves. This allows the mechanism to turn, thus winding the window up slightly crooked. Take the door panel off and check all four bolts are tight.
Not sure this is the problem, but its what happened with mine
