I have a 2009 Chevy Silverado Ext. Cab, and the driver window has been giving me problems. I have had it in the shop 4 times now and they never can get it to act up the have they have replaced the motor, regulator, and put new window switches in and it sill messes up occasionally. The last time I had it in the shop they left a note saying to wait a few seconds before trying to roll it down, and I have and every now and then it will still stop working. Sometimes the window is stuck down and wont go up and sometimes it up and wont go down. All the other windows work fine including the rear windows for the extended cab. Anybody else have these issues. Any help or advice is appreciated.

Thanks,

David

Wow, I'm having the same exact problem with mine. It's going in Weds to get looked at. I was having to open and close the door for it to work again. I'll let you know what my dealership says.

hmmm... i'd be checking the wiring/connectors/etc ESPECIALLY if opening/closing the door makes it work.

 

Sounds like a bad connection somewhere.

A truck with 7000 miles should not be having these problems... Door side mouldings are falling off for the 3rd time so its going in for that also, hopefully the 2010 seat covers i'm sick of the lint! Got to love the 3/36000 mile bumper to bumper!

My dealership said that they have checked everything I'm about to take it in for the fourth of fifth time. My only problem is it never does it when they have the truck so I honestly believe they think I am just making it up because all my paper work I get back says no problem found my truck has 15,000 miles but started when it had around 8,000 miles. I appreciate all the input and if any finds a solution please let me know I am tired of my truck being in the shop. I am paying for it I want to be able to drive it.

      The Peckish Synapse

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      You're better read than that Atlas. 😏   British science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke formulated three adages that are known as Clarke's three laws, of which the third law – that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" – is the best known and most widely cited.   Stribeck and the pivotable Hersey Number isn't voodoo nor snake oil. That part is physics. It's what marketing and bean counters do with it that is snake oil and voodoo.    Stribeck is the relationship between Hersey and the Coefficient of Friction. Within the Hersey Equation if viscosity and viscosity is 'Dependent' on.......heat.......and.......viscosity index or the temperature to viscosity slope.    Specifically Hersey is the viscosity AT THE TEMPERATURE IN THAT LOCATION FOR THAT SLOPE.   Hydrodynamic lubrication exist when the film thickness in the location is 3X the Ra roughness of the surface. This is irrespective of the hardness of the substrate. To obtain that thickness X viscosity is required for Y velocity at Z load. That's a lot of moving parts. It is also impossible to maintain in an ICE but nearly possible with a turbine under constant load.    What does that mean? Error heavy and operate light. Wear is inevitable but the rate of wear and the milage obtainable are a function of prevailing conditions and HABITS. The only penalty is viscous drag and at fractions so low as to be well worth the effort. Double the life, half the manufacturing carbon foot print. Greed is the only impediment.    The materials generated by SwRI are the RESULT not an estimation or a hypothesis.    Don't delude yourself sir, EV's have as many pitfalls as ICE's. We just don't know what they are yet and it will take longer to sort as MARKETING and GREEDY CEO's have had more time to polish the turd they are selling.

      You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built.
