driver side window problems

when the door is open and i feel the glass its really wobly. which pisses me off. but any ways when i go to roll it up it gets like 1/2 to 3/4 up it takes a sudden right turn. like a lot. i have to push on it to keep it on track. then i have to play with it to get the right height. cause the damn thing will go up to high and catch on the t-top and wont shut. if i get the height right then i have either a leak up front of the window or the back. this problem really pisses me off. does any body know how to fix it?

Tighten it. My window was way off track and it turned out my stabilizer was broken so it was also scratching the hell out of my tint. Even after I put the new stabilizer on I had to adjust it to make it perfect.

i had the same problem. ending up replacing my window with a junkyard window. apparently, there is a rivet that wear out and this rivet helps keep the window on track. so check that out i guess.

Bingo. It can happen from closing the door by pushing on the glass over a number of years--or just too hard, even if the car is relatively newer. Once you get it fixed, if you don't already, close the door by pushing on the actual door and not the glass.
