Drivers Window Issue

[RichyP]

hey all. ive got me a 5 door astra with manual windows. when i lower the window, it goes down sweet. But when it goes up, it goes up a bit then the rest of the way up it starts to lean forward, alot. Ive tried to adjust it on the adjuster at the rear of the door but that just made it worse. Any ideas please. losing patience on sorting it.
cheers

sounds like its not on the runners properly, take your door card off and make sure the window is sitting in the runners properly, failing that do what most do and put electric windows in, i did and it was easy matey

it looks like its in the runners, it jus seems to stick at the front. plus its a struggle to make it go up. even if i had leccy regulators i guess it would struggle too. wiring in leccy regulators seems like too much hassle too.

has the door been bent? if not id look at the seal. i had this issue and it needed the seal gluing back in place. ( ovbiously pushing the glass off line). im intregued on this myself

the seals are intact, but i tried spraying sum maintanance spray along the runner earlier and it went up easier than before so dont no if the front runner needs a new seal in it or summit.
