Noisy Power Window Motor? Replace the Regulator

If the power window motor in a '04-06 TL makes a rhythmic, whirling sound when you raise or lower the glass, replace the regulator. When you install the new regulator, inspect and clean the glass run channels, then lubricate them with Shin-Etsu Silicone Grease (P/N 08798-9013). If the run channels are damaged, replace the damaged channels
