Default Passenger side window doesnt drop fast enough when I open the door

it drops but not fast enough. the glass grabs at the top if I open the door very fast. I have to pop the door and wait a second and then open it. Other than that its fine. It goes back up when I close it. Any ideas?

Mine does the same thing on the same side. Do you get a studder in the door? Almost like it's hanging when you open it?

how exactly does it stick and keep the door closed?

i've had the battery out of my car and forgot to roll the windows down and the door opens and shuts just fine. The window stays fully up and the door still opens just fine. Are you sure it's the glass causing the door to catch? mine doesn't have any resistance when i have them all the way up and battery out.

Hmmm. I dont know. the glass seems to hit the A pillar when the door opens. I've even removed the A Pillar and reinstalled it.

Guess I could disc the battery and see it grabs on the drivers side. the car was in the body shop and had a new roof installed along with new A Pillars.

ya, that would be a quick experiment to test it.

not that they screwed something up, but maybe the door seal or something isn't installed correctly causing it to hang.
