Give the runners a squirt of wd40..might also help doing the same on the edge runners and glass edges..then clean off the overspray.

This time of year salt and road grime get into every bit of the car.

A little piece of grit stuck in the seals will do it,sometimes lowering the window all the way and getting an airline and blowing the channels will clear it

Silicone spray is a better long term fix than wd40 imho  ;)
