[xk8] Difficulty getting passenger side rear window to go up

Good evening, this is my first post. I have a rear window that goes
up but stops with about 3/8’’ to go. Does anyone have an idea on how
to bring it up all the way?–

Often the front window gets a bit out of alignment and interferes.
If not, there are also rear window adjustments. If none of this
works, there is excessive stretch in the regualtor cable or a bad
bushing in the regulator and the regualtor can be replaced or
professionally rebuilt.

The variuos adjustments are discussed and linked to in this thread:

If it turns out to be the regulator here is a link to a shop that rebuilds them.

No association. Quick turnaround time. Price at a lot less than a new one.

Jagrepair has a good “how to” replacement guide
