They are slow. Replacing it may help but that will slow down in ~~ 2 years. Someone was selling a wiring kit which was a perm fix for the issue. The real issue is there is not enough power/the factory wiring is not enough. This wiring kit that was sold was essentially a wire coming from your battery going to a relay which then went to the window motor.

This is exactly what I was talking about. I've never got it myself but everyone that has says very good things about it.

i got a reman dorman from oriellys... anyway its still the same speed as passenger but i thought before i replaced it that the passenger wm was going to go soon as well... anyway another question i have is when you roll up and down theres a sound that is kind of a clicking sound but yet a little unexplainable. only on the drivers side window... any thoughts on that one?

Ok so I believe it was a new motor now after looking at part numbers and what not but after installing this a month ago the window now starts and stops as it wishes... Maybe I need to replace the switch? Also what is the knocking sound I hear while rolling the window up and down... Only on the drivers window...
Start with the knocking sound... Is it like a grinding? If so, the motor has become disconnected from the regulator and is grinding the gears. (This could be the source of all your problems if that's the case.)
When the window doesn't move, do you hear the "click" of the express down module working?

Gears are not grinding... It's just a knocking like sound.. It's done this ever since I bought the car even with the old motor...
When I push the button there is nothing... No noise no clicking no grind nothing... How do I know if it is the switch?

It may not always be easy to hear. The express down module lives in a plastic pocket under the dash on the side of the trans tunnel. If you can't find anything in the door and need to start tracing electrical, this is probably the best place to start. You should also be able to jump the connector to the module to take it out the equation and confirm if its an issue. (This is rare - usually the problem is in the door.)
Until you solve the mechanical knocking problem you have, anything you do could be a waste of money. Showing the motor a high voltage is not a magic wand for a mechanical problem. Any mechanical binding will slow the motor down - even with the window kit installed.
