Acura RSX window help

Looking for someone familiar and able to diagnose a rsx drivers side window issue in or near Vancouver. It stops at approximately 75% of way up, then just refuses to proceed. Took the inner panel off so it's easy to see and get to....I just don't know what's going on by eyeballing it?! Anyone?? (Obviously will pay for your services)

I'm no expert, but a lot of times when my Miata's window didn't go up and or down was because it was snagged on the door pull's wire.

I would suggest taking a look at that to see if that's the case.

Refuses to go up in manual mode or only happens when you want it to go auto up?

Basically what happens is whether I go manual up or one touch up, it stops at about the three quarter way point. At first the auto up would only go to that point but then you could power up manually to the top. But as of Saturday it won't go up be on 3/4 at all! It also won't seem to stay and it's rubber track on the vertical b pillar. I took off the door skin and tried to look inside, I can't see anything that looks off but then again I don't know what to look for? At this point I'm tempted just to go to a glass repair shop. Unless somebody has the skills and knows what to do, I'd be happy to come out to you.

Silicon lube the track on the pillar where the window slides up. This is a very common problem on EK civics so might be a simple fix for yours as well.

Berz out.

^what berz said, but might as well lube the whole track while you're doing it anyways.

Curious if you got the issue solved since the car is now for sale.

Yeah sorry I forgot to update this. It was an easy fix. The b-pillar side (vertical) of the window basically went off its rubber track, so halfway up and we'll get bunched up. Realigned it now and it's all good!
