I've just changed the drivers' side electric window and I'm finding it hard to get it rigged right.
Firstly, am I right in thinking that the only adjustment is the two bolts that attach the window to the actuator?
Secondly, does anyone have any advice for how to adjust the window which judders and doesn't go into the front channel until later in its stroke, on the way up.
I'm going to try some lubricant in the channels as my next course of action.
Setting up the electric windows -- advice please

Re: Setting up the electric windows -- advice please
2 bolts is correct
the window should be located in the track at each side for the whole of the travel.
Used grease or silicon lubricant (silicon best) to stop stickyness (reduce friction).
