WINDOW PROBLEM FIXED(NO COST/NO DEALERSHIP)
HI GUYS,
I JUST HAD THE SLANT WINDOW PROBLEM. ALSO , THE WINDOW SEEM TO GO UP SLOW. I TOOK MY VX TO A VEHICLE GLASS REPLACEMENT SHOP. THE SERVICE GUY STATED THE REGULATOR WAS BAD.THEREFORE I BOUGHT THE REGULATOR FROM THE DEALERSHIP $80..I TOOK IT BACK TO THE GLASS REPAIR PLACE AND HAD IT INSTALLED FOR $75. AFTER HAVING MY WINDOWS TINTED AND WAITING 5 DAYS, THE WINDOW PROBLEM RETURNED.I THERFORE WENT INTO THE DOOR PANEL AND LOOKED AROUND A LITTLE.I FOUND THAT THE FRONT GUIDE RAIL IS A REALLY CHEAP DESIGN(WELD) AND COULD EASILY MOVE. WHEN THE RAIL MOVES,IT CAUSES THE WINDOW TO MOVE(BEND) THE TRACK.SO, I GOT OUT A PAIR OF CHANNEL LOCK PLIERS AND WIDEN THE TRACK AT THE MID AND TOP SECTION.OH, DONT FORGET TO MOVE THE RUBBER GUIDE.THE WINDOW WORKS LIKE A BRAND NEW WINDOW NOW.THERFORE, I DID THE OTHER SIDE THE SAME WAY.YOU ONLY NEED TO OPEN THE TRACK WIDER WHERE THE WINDOW STICKS OR THE TRACK MOVES. THE BAD TRACK IS NEXT TO THE WINDOW MOTOR WITH A BLACK RUBBER GUIDE.
