Driver's side Window on P5..
Anyone's driver's side window sound messed up when you roll it up/down? It's a hard noise to explain.. but basically it sounds like it's about to die. This is an intermittent problem.. sometimes it makes the noise, sometimes it doesn't.

Window blues too
I haven't noticed any window noises 
, but I did notice once I got my tint done that the window dosen't roll up strait, you can see a bit of un-tinted glass at the rear of the window as you up the window. None of the other windows do this...and my dealer said it's normal...Jesus McF**ckin' Christ 
what a load of sht! Atleast it's documented in the computer that I had a concern (although a customers concern means sht to the dealer untill you call HQ!) If I have problems 2 years from now...

I've had creaky window problems on both of my previous cars (Honda, VW) and for those the dealers just lubricated the regulator, but the Mazda guy told me lubrication is only a temporary fix.

On a similar note, now that I am listening for rattles and stuff, my sunroof makes a grinding noise in the last half of the track when opening. Mazda appears to have issues when glass is involved.

Both the driver side window AND my moonroof make creaky/grinding noises...
WTF!?!?
