2003 Sequoia rear window repair

The rear window on this 2003 Sequoia would go down but not back up again without two-handed help, rust and corrosion was the culprit

My guides are rusted through. Going to buy new guides and replace following this video. Thank you very much for this!

What if my window wont roll down at all? Can i still replace the track? Mine is rusted out.

My greetings from Ukraine. Thanks for the informative video. I respect people who skillfully work with their hands, are not afraid to turn nuts and are not afraid of mechanisms.

[@whatsbroken8309]

Thank you for that!! It is fun to tinker and repair!

[@showgirlsaroundtheworldada4484]

You are amazing! i wouldnt have took all that out

[@whatsbroken8309]

I tried just lubricating it previously but found it needed a good cleanup and the rust removed

[@showgirlsaroundtheworldada4484]

@@whatsbroken8309 if it would have been properly lubricated every 3 years with the right products it would have never rusted like that..its a shame..

[@craigoller9283]

Good video! Thank you. I think my problem is dirt and debris build up in the tracks. I’ll be doing this today.

[@whatsbroken8309]

Your are welcome sir!

[@randallsmith7885]

It may be dirt. And it may be rust!

[@showgirlsaroundtheworldada4484]

You didnt lube the tracks with silicone? I use it to protect the plastic wheels and tracks...i use white lithium on the crank wheels and dielectric silicone on my rubber upper guides...stops rust too

[@whatsbroken8309]

Not sure if I caught it on video but I used powdered graphite, thinking maybe it won't pick up and hold any future debris

[@showgirlsaroundtheworldada4484]

@@whatsbroken8309 well the prob with that is it wont stop the rust and save the plastic rollers as well as synthetic oils ..i have the same car..zero rust

[@cajundad5042]

What if the plastic is broken on the bottom of the window. Is that an available part.

[@whatsbroken8309]

I can't recall the specifics of the window components, sorry! But I suspect either Toyota or an aftermarket source would carry the parts...

[@lifeframedjw]

The plastic is part of the window. I've researched it some. I just hard coded the window to stay up with some pvc pipe zip tied to the vertical door frame.

[@user-fp1xt3sx3j]

Mine broke too, i had to use a plastic welder to fix it.
