Today when I went to make my window go up, about halfway, it stopped. So I took it back down a bit and brought it back up and I could hear the gears inside slipping and slowly but surely, my window made it back up. Would this be that the gears are loose? Or is the motor going bad? It's the driver side window, if that's relevant.

most of the time it is just a worn out motor, but it is worth opening up the door and removing the motor and bench testing it. That will eliminate things like wiring, relays, battery/alt issues. Then make sure everything inside the door is lubed up nicely, sometimes the tracks and runner dry out if you have a faulty window seal or something
