Make sure there is no grit or anything stuck in your channel , also sometimes on communal jobs i get pet hair stuck in my sqeegee that also leaves lines on the glass. Are you wetting the window enough as i find sometimes when the window is a little dry the squeegee can stick a bit.

Buying a new rubber will remedy this problem...It's worn out ;D

Sometimes (especialy on new rubbers) you can get a tiny nick in the edge of the rubber.  Bloody anoying iff your a skinflint like me!!!  You just have to either turn the rubber over or replace it.
