As title states

In my soarer, you can wind the window down fine, but everytime you want it up, you gotta push/slide it up with your hands. But once up you can wind down again no probelems

this the the regulator or something else?

Check your slides for dirt and stuff. If they are fine then get a new window regulator motor. ;)

sounds like the plastic clip on the steel wire is broken. New regulator/motor assembly required if this is the case. You can do a bodgey on them and wire them up as a temporary solution. I did this and it worked fine for months. Second one I tried only worked for a week or so. You basically need to bind the window frame to the cable so it goes up and down.

I ended up buying two new ones from Toyota, and now I know it is another 15-20 years until I need to worry about it again.
