Re: 2000 CRV Door panel removal
I finally got the CRV from my daughter to work on. After the good
instructions and the door skin removed I found the motor barely hanging
on by 1 of 4 bolts. The sheet metal was somewhat damaged where the
bolts went thru. After getting all 4 lined up and the
window in track it was a success. It just seems now that the window
seems to go up
really tight. I was wondering if there is some adjustment.
Thanks again.

instructions and the door skin removed I found the motor barely hanging
on by 1 of 4 bolts. The sheet metal was somewhat damaged where the
bolts went thru. After getting all 4 lined up and the
window in track it was a success. It just seems now that the window
seems to go up
really tight. I was wondering if there is some adjustment.
Thanks again.

If the door panel is still off, try loosening and retightening the mounting
bolts when the window is in the "up" position. I haven't had Hondas bind,
but our old Dodge (shudder!) was really bad about it. Otherwise, spraying
the channel with silicone spray is popular.
