2003 Civic, Power window problem...

Hey guys, just had a quick question about my 03 civic with 47k miles on it, have had it for about 3 months and about 2-3 weeks ago my driver side window started rolling up REALLY slow when I push the up button, more so when its colder and raining etc, but still slow in average weather conditions, happens a little with the other windows, but is 3x worse with the front window.

Any ideas? Should I just take it to a dealer?

Thanks

could it be the window motor or car battery dying slowly?

also check the rubber weather strips.. possible it could be touching the glass too close?

there is a TSB on this. My car does it too on the passenger side. The TSB states that the most probable cause is the run channel inside the door panel is binding or pinched. Take off the door panel and look at the run channel going all the way around the door. The run channel is basically the big fat rubber seal going down the door. Look to see if it is pinched or binding. if it is, free it up and apply grease and run the windows a bit up and down.
