i just replaced my window regulator in my driver side 99 civic, the windows are manual and now after i replaced the regulator it is extremly hard to roll up the window and even harder to roll the window down?

is there a adjustment i can make in the regulator to loosen it up? i used white lit grease in a spray can on the window tracks before installing the door panel but htat didnt help?

also after installing the new regulator it seems like the window is being pusehd outward agaisnt the trim a little more than the other side window. can this all be adjusted or should i go to the gym and get stronger hah?

You can adjust the position of the window glass and regulator.

And you should use silicone spray lubricant in the rubber side channels.

pretty sure every EK civic owner drives around with silicone spray in their vehicle to keep the windows working....

Did you use an OEM window regulator?
