Default 2004 Driver's Window Motor

Our driver's side window motor is doing some very quirkey things. When you lower it, sometimes it will come on down and sometimes it will come down part way. You can give a little power assist (w/ your hand) and it will continue. However, you better not let it go all the way down. Because in order to get it to come back up, you have to push down hard on the window and then press the up button. If it goes all the way down, you hear a crunchy noise and then pray that it will come back up.

I am assuming that the motor and lifting mechanism needs to be replaced. Has anyone seen this one before? Is there anything different I should try first??

Yes it does sound like the window regulator.
