Hi and welcome Rissy, might be wise to have a good inspection of the underside of your car......rust or a fracture could give similar symptoms. Good luck with finding the irritating noise

Unfortunately not the stay. I think i've angered whatever it is that's doing it, because its now even worse than ever. I'm now suspecting its the runner mechanism where there must be some sort of rollers or something which run along the horizontal bar for winding the window up and down. But as said before, to get into all that properly means de-gooing the entire door for proper access. A horrible job by anyone's standards. I just hadn't followed up because i've been up to my eyes with other car problems with my other cars, and i wasn't sure anyone was still following or not. I am indeed Scottish. From Edinburgh, like yourself. I moved to Rugby in 2004 for work purposes and been based here ever since. My Civic used to live in Edinburgh too, and she does make it up every so often, but not as much since she's becoming an old girl now, and more demanding for attention, so although i'm sure I could make the long journey in her ok, i don't like to push her too much. 14+ yrs i've owned this car for now. Still all stock and original. 127,000 miles on the clock and counting. I'm sure if it wasn't for me, she would have been scrapped a long time ago! Anyway, when i get around to it, i'll get into that runner and report back. Watch this space.

And she's fixed!

The engine is painted! Some dress up. Now gaskets,water pump,thermostat,timing belt and other...
