Civic-EG.com Forum 3.3.1

- Wed Jan 30, 2008 11:15 pm #40144 Not sure if this is in the right forum but every time my window is about 3/4 of the way up it starts moving towards the front of the vehicle. So now when the window is all the way up you can see where the tint stops and there is about an eighth of an inch gap between the window and molding(?). I'm not familiar with the different terminology so please excuse the vague description. Let me know if you need pics.

Also, the drivers side and passengers side move VERY slow and they both do this exact same thing. So I'm probably answering my own question (but just want to verify), it's more than likely my window regulator/motor right? I haven't had a chance to strip the door apart to take a look.

Edit: I forgot to mention my idle drops every time i roll up these windows...and that is probably a dizzy problem...

- Thu Jan 31, 2008 12:55 am #40163 idle dropping is nothing unusual for a civic. But you'll have to take your door panel off to fix the window. It sounds like it is coming off track. It's hard to describe, but you'll have to see the glass bolts to the window regulator. chances are a bolt is loose (there's 2 bolts, one at the front and one at the back) or the glass has come loose from the white clip that bolts to the regulator. If that is the case, just re-glue the window to the white clip using JB weld or something strong like that.

Do Not PM me your technical questions. Post them in the forum!

- Thu Jan 31, 2008 2:33 am #40190 maybe you could try to adjust the window on the screws that hold your window regulator. I think there're 3. you could play with them to see if you can get it straight

Bori-

- Thu Jan 31, 2008 7:32 pm #40287 Well it seems as though the bolts and brackets are fine that hold the window into the regulator. One thing I did notice while rolling my window up and down was that the gear that moves the regulator had quite a bit of play/movement in it while trying to roll up the window. Hmmm... I think I'll try and just re-align the window this weekend and see what happens. It's not that big of a deal but it bugs the shit outta me at 65+ mph...

- Sun Feb 24, 2008 7:14 pm #43639 I dont know about power compared to manual. Mine is manual and di the same thing. It would also not roll down until the second revolution of the crank. I took the door panel off and noticed that there are four bolts that hold the mechanism responsible for rolling up the window and they were loose really bad. Tightened them up and fixed all problems.

- Mon Nov 10, 2008 6:12 am #78059 my window did the same thing and i broke the little plastic thing that is on the track. (kinda hard to explain)
