Manual window..

Hi,

I have a CIVIC 2001 DXG 4 doors, and my window is manual. When, I push the stick to scroll down the window, it's easy.. But when I would like to scroll it back up, it's freaken hard. All my 4 windows are the same. Easy to move down, freaken hard to get back up. My friends are complaining about this.
Please help me..

It's called gravity. Easier to lower something than to lift it.

Take the door apart and see what's causing the resistance?

Re: Manual window..

Take the door panel off dude.
- look inside the actual handle, there's a piece you lift up and there's a screw underneath, use a phillips to get it out.
- about 2 inches from that in the corner of the handle is another screw, get that one too.
- inside the lever that opens the door (12 inches above handle) is another plastic piece you have to pry out with a small flathead and get at 2 screws behind it, take those out.
- unhook lever and remove
- use a flathead to get the C clamp out from in behind the window roller - DON'T LOSE IT! Sometimes it pops off and you only hear the tinging as it bounces down the street.
- put fingers behind speaker grille and pop out. Pop out door all around outside.
- lift door panel off
- finish beer
- inspect

From here you can lift up on the bottom of the window as you roll and see if it's easier.
