As a quick possible solution try spraying WD40 in the window runners. I found with my vectra that the windows would come up misaligned but following the WD40 the movement was much smoother and improved in alignment. The only problem is that you will have to spray the runners regularly as it isnt a permanent solution. When i get round to it i will grease the runners on mine.
