First I would try rolling the window down, and spraying some silicone lubricant down the rubber "rails" that guide the front and back edges of the window...

You more then likely have a bent or worn window regulator. I to had to replace this item last summer. It really wasn't that hard but it does require removing the door panel and the glass and then removing all 10mm bolts and removing the regulator through a small whole in the door. If I remember correctly the part was about $65-70 bucks from the dealership. Again Im not their to see the problem but this does sound like what your running into. Hope this helps and good luck!

i had this problem and went through 3 window regulators!!!

try this first .. take your door pannel and there should be either 2-3 10mm bolts(looking at the door from inside the car) its right of the speaker you cant miss them they are goldish colored loosen them up enought to slide them over to the right.. that should work ..
if not look and see if your window reg is bent.. its hard to tell but look in the middle of the X.. if its confusing PM me ill try to explane better
