    Take apart some stuff?

    Undo the bolts that hold it on/near track.
    Take out glass.
    Take out track|regulator.
    Is it bent or something?

      I dunno. I've owned the car 20 hours.

        Early car?

        Panel off and follow those.
        Easiest way, I tryed taking the regulator(track) off first and didn't work.
        Glass first, track second. (And motor)

            Happened to me too. This small metal track that holds the window in the middle on the bottom fell off so I just glued it back on with some gorilla snot and put it back in the track. Very easy, but my tumbler at the same time decided to stop working, so I did it all with the door closed. Ended up breaking lots of tools in anger.... I need a therapist.
