I have a 2000 Honda Civic and my problem lies with the driver's side
power window.  It will roll down just fine, but when I attempt to raise
the window, it is very slow - and at some times stops.  The other
windows in the car work just fine; the only problem is with the driver's
side window.

Has anyone else had this same problem?  If so, how did you resolve the
issue?  Was it the motor for the power window or something else that had
to be fixed?  Thanks for your help!

Many times it is the glass binding in the rubber tracks.  Try lubricating
the inside of the tracks with silicone (spray it on a q-tip and run it
around in the slot).  If that doesn't speed it up, then the motor is
weakening or there is crud buildup in the lift mechanism.

Yeah, i've been having this problem as well for the last several years
with my 2000 Civic but only last year did the window somehow manage to
come off of its track.  I've taken the door apart twice, lubricated the
arms holding the window with grease and tried running some oil (not
motor oil) down the tracks to help.  No improvement.  Perhaps this
winter, when it happens again, i'll try some silicone along the tracks.
During the summer, the window is perfectly fine.
