Power window

The other day it got kind of cold here -10, and I put down my driver side window and now it sounds loose. I have put it all the way down and up and seemed to correct it self, but ran in to the same problem again recently. The window seems to go up and down allright, but the glass sounds loose when I close the door. I have tried to cushion the glass when I close the door but always sounds like I am knocking it against some steel. Has anyone had this happen? How do I take off the door panel to see whats happening? I am an old ford guy, don't like this hard stuff to work on.

I would inspect the felt in the window channels inside the door.

Welcome to FTE, when you roll in all the way down is it also loose inside the door?

The window as a whole feels tight going up and down. The felts all seem fine too. When I close the door, there is a noise almost like something hitting the glass in the door. I kind of think it has to do with the track.

It is very common for the glued on attachment at the bottom of the glass to pull off. Even more common when the glass is frozen shut.
