ur pw motor could be goin out or maybe the tracks r not lubed up, try some silicone lubricant on the tracks, if that doesnt work, look into a new motor. as for the leak, best bet would be ur tail light gaskets. they get pretty thin and deteriorate(sp?) over time. check those out.

A lot of times all it needs is some lubricant on the tracks like Outxider said. I know that power windows, no matter what car they're in, have problems after a while with tracks gumming up or needing some lube. If those aren't the problem, then you'll need a new power window motor.

yo all my 4 windows of my car stop working, i have to open my car door to pay the toll money. it all started on my driver side window, then the two back windows of my car, and after that...all my windows doesn't work...
I took the car to my dealer, they told me that somebody was trying to get into my car, and that the cables was pull and cut.
in order to fix, i have to pay new cables for the car windows. So each window i have to pay to get it fix cost $175/ each window. I was like ' get the **** out here' so i left. I went to check it if that was the problem. I open all four car doors , check if it was cut, and no cut is no where to be found. i knew that auto was lieing to me, there was no cable cut, and i have to pay $175 dollars for each cable to fix...i call the daeler to **** himself.

check on ebay they can range anywhere from 10-100 bux per window. most of the stock replacements ones are usually around 50 bux for the rears each and 75 bux for the fronts each. check it out.
