How do you correct a window that rolls up slightly crooked and doesn't fit in the weatherstripping properly?

This seems especially common on the older Hondas that have power windows, and somewhat common on older Hondas in general.

What do you do to correct this?

Does it require a new track? Or just some adjustment?

 

i have the exact problem with my 90 hatch. both sides. the door speakers i had in were a lil too deep and the window would rub against them whenever the windows were rolled up or down. i've been trying to find a way to fix it but haven't found anything yet.

 

My window was doing the same thing except I had manual windows. Basically take off your door panels, the plastic that's underneath that and then adjust your glass on the window regulator. You've got to raise your window until you can see the mounting bolts that hold the glass to the regulator throught the 2 holes. My glass was not even sitting on the window regulator near the front of the door. I've actually got to do it again as my glass is misaligned. I may need to get a used regulator from the salvagge yard. I beleive most regulators from the same year Civics fit.

Exactly, I just had to do this when I replaced my drivers side door. The glass would not seat into the weatherstripping right at the top of the travel of the window. I used my old manual regulator since the new door I got was power and I believe the old regulator was messed up in the accident. I had to modify the door so I could rock the glass far enough against the door sash so it would properly close. However, this is a temporary fix until I get a new regulator. If you need any help, I just completely transferred the guts of a manual door onto a power door so just hit me up with any questions.

 

i know how to fix a window that is off track, Put it back on track! hahaha I really dont know, im just bored.
