Hello All,

My Camry 2000 is making a "Drrrr" kind of noise when rolling up the
driver side window as is something is shaking or trembling. It does
"not" make the noise when rolling down though.

Other windows are working fine.

Please help me in diagnosing this.
All tips/suggestions welcome.

Sounds like the regulator mechanism may be binding up. You might want
to remove the door panel and lube the moving parts. Spraying some
silicone in the track might help too.

I want to attempt to lubricate the window regulator.
For this, I should be taking off the door panel, right ?
Not the whole door, right ?

Also, I had the master power switch changed last year at an auto shop.
Parts was $275.
Does this comprise both window motor and window regulator ?

Thanks

Finally took off the door panel but saw that removing the regulator
would be difficult.

So took it to local mechanic. Parts was $50 and labor was $60. I had
ordered the parts online.

Now, the problem does not exist anymore. Smooth operation now.
