Default Problem with Drivers side window

Nothing too serious but it is much slower than my passanger side window. going up or down...

08 coupe, just got her.

I found a reciept in the book about window tint (one window) and weatehr stripping. I assume that window was busted out.


Is this a fixable issue.

The only thing I can think is to remove the door panel and make sure that everything moves freely. Be careful... dont get your fingers pinched.

While in there, I might also might put a meter on the motor to see what kind of voltage was getting to it.

If the window was replaced it is possible that it was a little thicker and the weather stripping is pushing harder on it causing the window to be slower.

Hard to say without a good look in there.

If it your window regulator it'll cost a few hundred dollars to replace........$678.45 for the part, I can only imagine another $100 or so for labor...........

Since it is under warranty, I may just take it to the dealer
