mine is the same way, they will be clean till I roll them down and then they get all streaked and shitty looking. I think it is something in the window gasket? or maybe whatever pulls the window down. maybe its getting crappy from age and leaving residue?

mine is the same too. my room mate works at papa john's and brought back some of the papa john's window cleaner and that works! so far this is the only thing that i have found to actually not streak. and i have tried them all from rain x wipes to windex to foam sprays. and the bad thing is i have tint too. and don't want it to fade.

yeah see I don't have streaks from cleaning, my windows are clean as hell after I am done with them. Problem is like I said something in the power window mechanism leaves vertical streaks up and down both side windows when I roll them down.
As far as cleaning them anything like windex should do the trick as long as you wipe in small circular pattern. hmmm My mom used to clean our house windows with newspaper and vinegar(I think), she swore it was better than any window cleaner.

I don't know for you but for me,
I've applied that RainX windows coating, since then, my windows are alot easier to clean.
