ok since we bought it, it goes down fast but, damn, i can jerk my gerkin faster than the window goes up. the dealership we bought it from "lubed" the window tracks as a fix for it, which it did nothing. Then last night it got 3/4 of the way up and stopped and i was like... oh...damn! then the wife said pull back on the window a bit while pushing the button, so i tried it and VIOLA it went up perfectly fine. is there a plastic shim that goes in the tracks which may have just worn away or how are our window tracks setup?

If you find these let me know...the dealer replaced both our window motors because if the issue and it's back to going slow again...

I have the same exact problem with both front doors... rear doors have no problems at all... if this does fix it, or you find a fix for it let us know!

Another slow pair of front windows here. The passenger is slower than the driver, but overall they're pretty slow. It's worse in the cold. I wish they were as fast as my parent's 250. That thing is more than 10 years old, and the windows work perfectly.
