my power windows really struggle to go up sometimes...never any problem going down but it seems to me that the motors dont really have the strength to push the glass up anymore...any replace these before? how much of a pain is it going to be? where can i buy new motors and do you know how much i could expect to pay for them? :laser:
 
Sounds like a typical 1g problem. Does the window go straight up or does it catch at all and want to go up crooked. Window trims on 1g are famous for getting old and not wanting to let the window roll up. I would check you trim as well and see if that helps the window go up. Then check the motor.
 
Welcome to the club that nobody wants to be in. My driver's side window is so messed up, it's not even funny. Check vfaq, they have a page all about fixing window problems, it's under Miscellaneous.
 
My drivers side window goes up 2/3 the way then tilts forward cockeyed and gets coughts.
seems like the track is missing a giud or somthing??

any ideas?

True. Mine, Slowly goes down. If it doesn't I help it.
When is time to go up. It takes some time too but goes offset. Meaning that I have to take my time while I am driving to straight the window up. Even thought I already have a technique :coy:

The solution should be: getting a BRAND NEW CAR! :sosad:
