Default '97 Accord LX (4 door) - Front Passenger window problem.

Hi there everyone. Here's my problem:

I have an old 4 door '97 Accord LX. The front passenger side window constantly falls out of it's track when closing the window. IE: It won't seal. it actually sits outside of the door when you shut it.

The old gasket & motor had gone bad, so I just recently replaced both of them. The window now goes up very smoothly, but it constantly falls out of track. This same thing happened with the old gasket, so I figured it was a problem with the gasket itself.

Any help?

Here's a picture of exactly what happens.

you need to adjust the guide so it is positioned correctly.

How? Mine does this too. As it goes up it sort of tilts one direction and I can manually tilt it the other way. So how do I fix this?

Must lubricate first.SL Blaster or Liquid Wrench.Do everything with moving parts and parts that cause friction.

Well when you install the track, there is a place to adjust it. make the track tilt left or right. So do the install again....

Um... Mine is original. Is it possible that it is just loose and I can tighten it?
