The rocker switches that operate the windows have gotten "gummy" and sticky does anyone know what to clean them with or do have to replace them. Thanks.

Same on the S70 I just live with them. If you try to clean them the rubber stuff comes off, especially if you use solvents or alcohol. Try not to use hand cream on your left hand (haha) as this seems to make things worse.
