I had the same thing happen like 2 hours after I got home with my Z. It worked when I wrote the check, quit working shortly thereafter. I ended up installing a new window regulator (around a hundred bucks or less) if I remember correctly. Works like a charm now. Girlfriend very happy.

Common problem with C5 along with the door locks.

When I have a problem I take it to my great mechanic but if you are handy and it's the regulator, here is a link that might help.

I've had same issues with my passenger side window as well since last year. As mentioned above, common problem due to window not being used and gets "stuck" in same position. I've used the screwdriver trick before and has worked just fine. The key is to operate the window every couple of days.

Basically to fix you can try popping the small plastic piece off the door panel, use a long handled screw driver on the screws behind this piece and smack it a couple times with a hammer. I know sounds rather intimidating, but I've had no issue doing this method.
