My drivers window did similar things right before it failed
completely. Turns out the cable had frayed and was getting tangled on
itself in the regulator housing. If you need a new cable, make sure
you specify that you only need the cable assembly(~$100) because the
dealer will try to sell you the regulator also. I got the last cable
assembly for the drivers side in the US a few weeks ago. If you need
the part number, let me know and I will look it up for you.

Hi all...
More problems...
I noticed this evening that my passenger window was down about 1/4". I turned
the
car on and put the
window down...
*CRACK* and the windows rattled in it's track.
I then tried to put the windows up. It went, but slowly... I tried to go down,
ma ybe 2" and it was vary
slow. When I put it back up, it took about 1.5 seconds before it actually
started
to travel upward.
What did I do?
I'll tear the door apart this weekend, it this a common failure mode, or do I
hav e a good one dealt by the
gods?
Thanks,
Todd
