power windows are slowwwww
All the power windows in my 90 are slow as anything to put up and down. Is this because the motors are worn out? Or are they usually this slow? Im comparing the speed to pretty much every other power window ive seen

Clean the tracks, The grease inside them picks up dust and dirt over time. There was enough inside the track of my 87 to break the window clip.

Yeah I kinda figured that they were slow to begin with. I should clean the tracks soon. Theres a grinding sound coming from the sand and grit

Time taken to roll down windows all the way:
Bonneville: 6-8 sec
Altima: 2-3 sec
Rough estimates, but damn, I was surprised when I first rolled down the Nissan'* windows.
