Push down on driver side window switch rolls down fine but sometimes does not roll back upmissy2127 - 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix - Body & Interior - 8/18/2012No problems with other windows-
8/18/2012 JimmSeveral possibilities; faulty / dirty / corroded drivers window switch, dirty / obstructed drivers window lift slide / channnels. Try to swap the drivers window switch with one from another position - as first step - to see if the problem moves. If yes, then replace the window switch.

8/15/2012 Oberth1pop the tail lights out, check the bulbs / plugs for any signs of corrosion. A little dab of dielectric grease goes a long way. These connectors arent the best, do your headlight harnesses while your at it.

Worn more on tyhe leading edge then the back edge and I am losing brke fluid. Is this a problem with the brake caliperr

8/2/2012 HouseCallAutoIt sounds like you have a bad front wheel hub bearing. It is common to have some vibration when turning wheel "slightly" in one direction with a bad hub bearing. I cannot really explain the fact that it stops when you apply the brake.
