i've also had this same problem with my passenger side window ever since the window was replaced after it was broken.. i heard that wd-40 is bad for this and you need some kind of window grease or lube..

I wish my problem was just a sqeak. My front passenger side door makes a slight banging every time I accellerate or the car goes to the side on a bump. I had an accident on that side in 99 but has been fine until a few months ago.

I have taken the panel off 3 times and fished around for loose parts with no success. I have taped wires and the foam down thinking it could be the cause. Still no success. I think it is coming from the front of the door and may be tracking related. Anyone have similar issues or pics of what it could be?

If the squeek is the result of the glass and the rubber wiper molding, you can try sillicone. You can also try RainX on the glass (outside) as this is an acidified silicone. It will last longer than the silicone and repel the water/snow. Don't use it on the windshield, nothing but problems in my opinion. I had to replace the windshield due to the hazing effect of the wipers.
