Default 99-00 Civic Power Window misalignment *Please Help*

when i roll my passanger window up on my 99 EX it goes up crooked and i end up with a gap at the top towards the back ... i think its some what of a common problem but i couldn't find anything when i searched so can anyone help
I opened my panel and tried to fix it but still nothing. Here is how it looks.

Do I move this bolt to align it back? Because I tried moving it and it won't budge.

you're supposed to adjust the glass with the roller guide bolts and the front channel. i think the bolts are #23 on your diagram there and the front channel is #11.
raise the glass as high as it can go against the channel on the top of the door. once it is up, loosen the roller guide bolts and adjust the glass so that it is parallel with the channel. once that's done, tighten the roller guide bolts. now loosen the front channel bolts and lower the window. push the front channel against the glass and then tighten the bolts. move the window up and down a couple of times to make sure it moves smoothly and then you're done.

Lubing the track on a regular basis is your best (and cheapest).
There is a TSB on this and I believe it requires replacing the regualtors? You may be able to find it on the net oryour Honda dealer may be able to get you a copy of the TSB.

Hope this helps

did this as well, lubed the tracks with silicon lubricant. windows work great and go up and down fast again. it was easy, the hardest part was getting the door panel back on...
