sounds like pretty typical VW eh

I had a sinking feeling when I first pulled up on the auto-retract window button, only for the window to go down instead.


Then I read how that is a common thing, for the calibration on them to go out of sync. So I calibrated them, which kind of fixed it.

But now that its super warm out, I can hear and feel how sticky whatever goop is on the window right where the weather stripping touches the window in the full up position.

Just need to get a razor blade and some how scrape it out...windex didn't even make the residue budge.

Front passenger exterior door handle also requires more force now to open the door, now that its warm. I lubed the latch, but I don't think it did much. That one is odd, it worked perfectly up until Sunday night.

Damnit, whoever owned this VW before me seems to have dumped maple syrup down the front window weather stripping, where they retract into. Stupid sticky mess in there, now that the sun is out heating everything up.

I'm guessing they had the windows tinted at one point and then removed it, leaving behind some sort of residue right at the edge? Maybe? Either way what a pain, the drivers side window seems to think there is a kid with its hand in the window every time I try to roll it up.

Maybe @rideit has some useful tips.

Sure! Go to Home Depot, and ask for Pedro.
Buy him a fresh pack of razor blades, and some hexane.
Or, up in the Narth, Maybe ask for Marcel or Jaques.

Another cool thing this week, I ‘graduated’ from shoulder PT. She said I am doing all the right things, and to keep it up.
So that’s good.

You and I clearly work in different environments.

Was sleeping good, I think maybe even REM given the depth of dream. And... Hannah decided to come in. Fucking child.

All my CFP classwork was completed last night. Working on the plan now, hoping to complete it and submit by next Sunday. Then it's on to the exam prep.
