Drivers side window painfully slow going up?

Rocky2 · Feb 28th, 2022, 14:04

Battery is ok and other windows go up & down perfectly……
Window regulator?
If that’s the case has anybody replaced one?
If yes is there a write up on it by any chance ?
TIA

Before you get rhe tools out clean the channels with a stiff brush and soapy water, allow to dry and then spray with dry lube.

I'd go with spraying the channels the window runs up with furniture polish TBH. Quite often works a treat. other causes can be deformation of the window frame where someone has tried to break in or the rubber trim not being correctly in place or badly degraded.
