This literally just started about 4 days ago. When the window goes down, it makes a loud "thud" when it reaches the bottom. It IS hitting something somewhere on the inner frame when it reaches the bottom, I just can't seem to find exactly what or where.
I took the door panel off yesterday and could not find where it was bottoming-out. I then put some thin pieces of Styrofoam (only to test it out) all along the bottom of the inside panel where the front and rear tracks were located to see if it would cushion the sound, but it didn't. There was about 2" of foam at the bottom, but still got the sound. I looked all throughout the bottom of the inner door frame for a loose piece of rubber bushing, but found nothing.
Is this the first sign that the motor may be going bad?
It seems to be working fine...for now. I just do not like any irregular noises.
