I just got this problem my driver side window will not go all the way down. I have a Coupe so my passenger side window works fine, but my driver's does not. It stops and leaves a small crack but will not go lower, but it goes up fine. So I do not know what is wrong. Hope you guys can help.

Hello, I am Danny.

It sounds like the Window Regulator is defective. You will have to remove the door panel to gain access and see what is happening while you try the window function.The regulator can be worn or defective not causing it to properly function. I have attached a tutorial showing how to remove the door panel. A window regulator is roughly $80.00. Hope this helps and feel free to ask any questions.Thanks for using 2CarPros.
