I have a 1995 BMW 318i and the driver's electric window goes down fine but you have to push on it to go up. What is wrong?

The window regulator and/or the channel the glass runs in are suspect and will require disassembly to know for sure.

Most of the times the window regulator/motor is to blame. Here is how to change it out. Check out the images (below). Let us know if you need anything else.
