have you pulled off the door panels and looked at them yet?
sometimes bolts just need to be tightened or rail grooves cleaned.
possibly new rails or regulaters.

New glass run channels work wonders.
I tried everything, but the channels were the magical cure. All the adjustments made were set back to near factory with the new channels and my windows work awesome. Go up faster than ever.

For the price of the channels, I wouldnt even bother playing with settings again.

This is assuming the regulators are in good shape....

Besides needing the standard window channels, rubbers, etc replaced. There is a window improvement thread.
