Window regulator? Or motor? If I send it back down and back up, its fine, usually.

Default start by lubricating the slots
you can use silicone spray for that.

Default I find the rubber on the outside really starts to drag...
cleaning both the rubber and glass, and putting some restorative on the rubber seems to do wonders.

One touch up: passenger window works fine. Driver window stops after ~3 inches, sometimes.
