christurismohk Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Same here. When the weather is hot, it gets even more sticky, and not working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i2NN Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Mine sticks also. I just thought that the previous owner ate a lot of donuts or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrooklynBoy Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Mine was just the switch that controls the rear drivers side window.......stopped responding to up or down for about 3 months. Suddenly started working again. Weird. Do it right the first time.........or don't bother doing it at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brum Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Same here. Mine got stock up and I didn't realize it...drove 20 minutes and pulled through a drivethrough...but when I tried to open the window, nothing haha. Had to go inside order and came back out and it worked again. Wtf? I'll try some silicon lube and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black_Rain Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Me too! I thought the previous owner spilled soda! Both front switches are sticky, but the drivers side is the worst Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legacyCT Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Mine is also exhibiting the same thing! No one has any idea of something that could at least help it unstick a little bit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I Donated thefultonhow Posted July 28, 2010 I Donated Share Posted July 28, 2010 I wonder if it would be easier to ask who DOESN'T have this problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanB Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 A non-oil non-throwing silicone based lube would be a better choice. I have some for my delrin RC gears. Will give it a squirt tomorrow and report back. What do you mean by "non-throwing"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder_Boy Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Right now just the driver side switch sticks. With a problem this common I'm sure there has to be a fix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brock Samson Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 add one more 2005 to this list...is this all on just the 05 models? Can anyone report back if they managed to get this fixed up under warranty? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rimfaxe Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 OK, I'm in - It sounds like a Subaru 'Feature' 05 driver's button sticks sometimes. It does not work at all occasionally, but it has always started working mysteriously after a few minutes. This usually happens at the drive-up bank ATM. I may try some dry lube in there- it couldn't hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 My driver side sticks also, push the button down but nothing happens. It only does it occasionally. What I've found that seems to not make it happen is to pull up on the button first before depressing it. I haven't had it not work ever since I started doing that.
