Help with passenger window please!!!

Hi, well I have a problem with the passenger side window, I've read the post about "replacing window regulator" but I'm kind of confused because my window get down without problems, but it goes up veeery slowly, so my question is.... If I buy a window regulator on e-bay it would solve my problem or it sounds more like a window-motor problem?
thanks

Before you decide to buy a window regulator, try a simple test if your window pillars just need a little more lubricant on both siedes to smoothen the rise of your window. There are cases where sediments or other materials get stuck up on the pillars so this creates a drag as the window is pushed upwards.

blueagle is right. I would use a simplegreen solution which is biodegradable to clean the window tract first. if the window glass continues to close slowly, try using a non-petroleum based grease along the window tract. anything oil based may deteriorate the rubber so steer clear.

as a last resort, change out the regulator.

IF you have warranty, just bring it in
