power antenna problem, recommendation?

hi,
	my bimmer's power antenna keeps getting stuck at 1 section. it only
goes down completely when i'm cleaning and lubricating it. once it's been
up for an short period of time, it won't go down completely again. i can
always assist it by pounding it a little bit, but it's annoying. i don't
want it to get vandalized either.  (i had annoying experience: someone
actually put a used condom on the half-down antenna, YUCK!). with this
in mind, i think it's time to get a brand new replacement. (or a better
lubricant)

	any recommendation? or any lubricant that works pretty well for
your bimmer? (i've tried the silicon spray, and have tried using white lithium
grease to lubricate the power antenna. both of these work ok till now).

	thanks in advance!
