Archived from groups: alt>autos>gm (more info?)
For almost a year now I have been having to pull my window into
place. On the driver side the window goes down just fine. When I got
to roll it up it takes a forward dive and I have to use my hand to
pull the front of the window up level (normal) to get it lined up and
in the track.

We (tonight) replaced the regulator that also came with the bar that
the front of the window tracks in where the weather stripping rides.
After 4 hours of frustration the same problem still exists. It is not
a power issue as it moves with great force as long as I have it level
by pulling up the front.

Anyone had this problem before? I have searched and searched and
found no postings anywhere about this type of thing.

Thanks for any help

It's been a long time since I've seen one.
Sounds like you need new clips on the bottom of the glass, that go into the
lower run channel.

This may apply to your car, I'm not sure

Is the plastic guide broken off the top rear corner of the window? That
will cause it to fall forward. The guide ( kind of like an ear) snaps
over the top rear corner of the glass and rides up through the rear
window track

good luck
