Driver Side Window Help!!!

my drivers side window rolls down just fine. When i go to roll it back up it doesn't roll up evenly. what causes this? i replaced the regulator and of course that didn't do anything for me. Is it the tracks that keep the window in place the problem? I'm lost any help is appreciated...

What do you mean it doesn't go up evenly? Is the window not rolling up at the same speed as the handle or is one corner going up faster than the other corner?

I think he means the glass goes up unevenly... Your tracks are out of alignment or the felt is wore out... Adjust the tracks and all will be good.

That's what he's asking, and that's my question too; I'm not sure what it means to go up unevenly as a couple things come to mind (which WC asked).

Either way, if the window is still hanging up somehow and the regulator has been replaced (I assume with a new unit), then the felt inside the tracks is about the only other thing that can prevent the window from rolling up and down smoothly, unless the tracks are bent somehow, which is unlikely.

There is a small amount of adjustment on the rear track that is down inside the door, once you get the door panel off, you'll see what I'm talking about.........
