Problem will be related to a loose gear or a worn gear of the motor. Remove panel and check motor and window glass installation.

could also be teeth missing on the regulator, thats what my problem was. had a bunch of teeth missing off the very end of the gear and motor would just spin until i pulled up on the window and it caught the good teeth and go up.
