Window making a knocking noise

Okay, it started sunday night. Hit the switch to roll the window down, and all it does is knock... Push it down while holding the switch and itll go down. When u stop pushing it, it does to and starts knocking. Roll it up, and it goes up perfectly fine. Until tonight. When it started banging real loud. It went up, almost to the top and started making that noise. We got it to go all the way up. No idea what it is... Help! =}

Oh! Something else!! While holding the switch to go down, with it about half way down, u can pull the window straight up with no trouble. Motors only a few months old, too

Re: Window making a knocking noise

Hey if you go to orielly make sure you are getting a new one. If not they will give you a reman they are 42.99 the new one is 49.99. But the cool thing is you can make them price match the new one with advance auto for 31.99. I know this cause I had to do this the other day. hope this helps
