Default Power window driver's side problem...

I know this is common, but my driver's side window goes down half way fine, but going up it comes up very slowely, and then closes after a while of trying because of the sensor. I have to wiggle it up in order to close it. Is this the motor, or the clips?

Sounds like too much friction is stopping the window. Clean window track and spray some lube. From half way going up, it's beginning to seal and there will be more friction.

It's always the clips. There's good write-ups on it. There's actually a current thread in this forum floating around below.

Might also be the regulator showing signs of failure.
