I have a 2005 F-350 Lariat with the power sliding rear glass, i jsut got the truck. The power slider is extremely slow on opening and closing (worse for closing). Are there any common issues with this system?

Thanks!

 

clean the window glides and window well with glass cleaner, then lube the slides extremely lightly with a bit of silicone based lube.

 

ill give that a shot, but i have a feeling its more serious then that, closing it takes about 40-50 seconds right now, but my fingers are crossed!!

 

I have the same issue with my 04 F350. I will try mhoefer's advice and post back. May not be for a while, no need to open that window till at least spring.

 

This works.

 

check out the TSB's. I believe there is one on the sliding rear window.

 

The TSB number is TSB-06-15-5. Some 2004-2007 F-Super Duty vehicles, equipped with a power sliding rear window (back glass), may exhibit a stuck or binding concern. This condition may be due to the center glass not being positioned correctly inside the upper or lower channel, the channel being warped, bent, or center glass de-bonded.

Read the complete TSB it gives correction instructions or take it to your Ford dealer and give them the TSB number and have them fix it.

 

what is tsb?
