Default My window

So I've gotten no where with searches and I've taken the door apart and can't seem to find a problem. When I have the window down all the way, I roll it up, it gets slow and the side that's towards the back gets pulled leaving the window about an 1/8" off track. It slides through the track fine, everything is greased. Here's a pic and you can see it pulled to side. The strip of un-tinted window on the side.

Any help would be great. Thanks.

Except the rear windows you can't just buy the replacement guide clips like you can with the front windows. You must buy a new regulator.

the writeup for the window guides is on audiworld. Took me about 45 min to do the pass front window...never tried the back so I don't know if it's the same or not.

good luck adjusting the door, and remember don`t rush , take your time, plan more time to put it back than to take it apart.

Awesome, thanks everyone. Now I just need to find the time to sit down and work it out. And yeah, anytime I mess with the car, I always take it slow, don't want to create a bigger problem than I already have.
