Power window tracks worn?

[nightfire]

When I roll up my driver's side window, it seems to tilt backwards (front of window higher than back of window) and it gets stuck, and rolls up really slow.

Does anyone know what I need to do to fix that? Is it a loose bolt? Worn bushing?

I'd like to know if I need to order something before I tear the door apart.

I just greased the hell out of the inside of the track, it helped me. Could also be a loose bolt. Take the door panel off and tighten everything down.

I was thinking about that. I'll give it a shot tonight.

I'll use some heavy dark gear grease so it doesn't smear white everywhere.

Be careful with how much grease you use. Last time I did it I used a bit too much on one side and I kept getting a small streak of grease on my passenger window when I rolled it back up.

Gotcha.

Thanks for the suggestions, guys. You saved me tearing my door apart. Works perfectly!

I used light-duty lithium grease (green colored). I used a Q-tip to thoroughly grease the rear part of the felt/rubber seal (basically along the back of the window when it's closed). Then I took a shop towel and ran it up and down the seal to soak up any excess so it didn't dirty the window.
