I've tried waxing the gasket by using a slim candle in the same way. That worked better but, again, only temporarily. A good solution would be welcome.
Thanks, do you mean the gasket inside the door, in the vertical guides for the glass, right?
I heard of other 86 with the same issue, only driver glass, and only going down.
