You have to tell us what part of the window you think is out of adjustment?

Is it centered in the opening? Does it seal against the weatherstrip?
Does the glass not go up enough?

yes the the glass in the front does not go up enough and in the back is it to wide up, but the limit switcher in the back touched the stop position and in the front is it everytime different.

First make sure the glass in centered in the window opening front to back, and the front edge of the glass follows the contour of the weatherstrip. You can look at the other side for reference.

There are separate stops for the front and rear of the glass on the bracket that clamps the glass into the window rail. You may need to adjust those to set the upward travel of the glass. Normally, they are adjusted to extend equal amounts from the bracket.

If you have the door panel off, inspect the drive cables and make sure the cable is not frayed or hanging up on the pulleys are any part of the frame.

Does the window make any noise when it goes up and down that might indicate a problem with the drive motor or cables?
