*Raises hand* I have a question, help me plz

[branman_crx_guy]

For some reason my passenger side window doesnt roll up or down very easily. In fact its incredibly hard to do it, but its not rubbing against anything cuz there's not marks on the glass. anyone know wat could be causing this problem? Thanx

It could of came of the window track.
Do you have aftermarket speakers? If so it might be the magnet rubbing the window. Mine did that and it never left any marks on the window. Try pulling off your door pannels and trouble shooting.
Good luck man.

Yeah i got infinity perfect components, the magnet is freaking huge. But i put the spacer in on both sides and it was fine. Plus, if it was the speaker, i would think both sides would do it. So im leaning more toward its off the track, how hard will it be to see if this is the problem and if it is, how hard will it be to fix? Thanx

I had infinti reference in my coors and had the same problem ... just get some spacers or some shit

To take the door pannel off just unscrew the 7 phillips screws (i think it's 7) then pop out the clips by pulling on the pannel.
Then just look into the door and see. Pretty simple

I already knew how to take off the panel, im not that dumb....but close to it . I just meant do i need to look for anything after the panel is off, or will it be pretty obvious whether or not its off the track? Thanx.


And if thats not it i guess it would have to be the perfect, so ill just get another spacer and hope the cover still fits lol.

You probably know this already but be careful with the plastic sheet behind the panel, that's your weather barrier.

Anyway, if you want to take out the glass you have to roll it almost all the way down and there will be two clips that are attached to the bottom of the window. Unbolt those clips, grab onto the glass and tilt it towards the front of the car and you should be able to slip it off the track, take the glass out, and take a closer look at the mechanicals.

Thanx, ill try that this weekend.

i had a simular problem and it turned out that the window track was bent, what caused it to start, i hope i can help. i just changed my window track cause when i bought my car originally the window didn't work properly.

[branman_crx_guy]

Ok, took off my door panel today. Took my speaker out, window still was hard as hell to crank, dont have a clue wat the problem is. I sprayed wd-40 over everything, didnt seem to help tho. I couldnt tell if the track was bent, didnt look like it tho. So i dunno wat the hell im gonna do.

[95civicman]

try and look to see if anything is stuck inbetween the track and the window, like in the track, it may sound a lil stupid but i remember when someone broke into my car thye busted the window and when i got it replaced the window was fine for a lil bit then wouldn't go up and i just pulled up really hard and found that a peice of glass got lodged inbetween the glass and the track. hope it helps

[fredthedragon]

my track didn't look like it was bent too but see if your window works better w/ the panel off if it does try gettinga a new track for the window it shouldn't be that hard to replace once you get the panel off.

[branman_crx_guy]

i cant really see anything, even with the panel off. I need to take the door itself apart, but that aint possible. I might try just goin up and down as fast as i can, see if i can fix it like that.....doubtful tho.

[fredthedragon]

actually see if the rubber trim thingie i can't remember what it's called is not working properly mine did that after i put my panel back on just allign it properly or check if it is alligned properly it takes a while and it's a pain, i used a coat hanger to get it put back on, wait now i remember it's the window gasket i think i dunno i need sleep mabey nitol will help me catch my "Z"s. will see i guess

[branman_crx_guy]

lol, thanx for the.....adivce, i guess thats the best word to describe it. I need sleep to. ill have my bro look at it tomorrow, he's the car genious.
