Window not staying up

Im having a problem with my passenger side window. It seems as though it is always a little crack open. You always have to lift the button so it can go up again a tiny bit. Not a huge bit open but just a tiny bit. What broken or not working? How expensive is this going to be to fix?

Well that seems really possible. I've had to remove the door panel a million times to change out switches and change door speakers. When the window goes all the way down its definitley not as smooth going down as it used too. I will take the panel off and put it on as right as i can to see if that changes.

Might be a messed up window regulator. Probly not too hard to replace if need be. Also, try using a silicone spray lubricant on the moving parts, as well as in any of the guided for the glass itself. Usually helps alot haha...refulator

What's a refulator?

"Refulator"

I like it, just saying it is fun.

"Honey, we have to have sex now or my refulator will explode"

"Officer, I didn't mean to speed, but my Refulator broke"

"I left it right next to the refulator, can't you find it?"

...this is the second time someone has d something weird I typed. First of course, being Nikfu searching for "Strewn about's worth"
Aparently, Im the only person to ever type those words in that order. Of course it looks ALOT stranger when taken out of context

Tom, I'd definately check to make sure that the panel was on correctly. If the top was misaligned it could very easily be rubbing on the window.

Thanks I will do just that. I think it is misaligned...even tightening the screws on the door is difficult...so obviously something is not right.
