Default Drivers side window motor making noise

But it still works. Just started happening. It sounds kind of ugly but is really just noise. Window still moves at a decent speed. Is there something that can be done to fix this or am I about to replace the motor? I recall this to be an outrageously expensive repair.

Thanks

Is it like a grinding noise?
If so then the regualtor is on its way out.
You would need to replace the regulator assembly.

Not really it could be one day or one month.
You never know.
