85’ 911 front window question

Guys,
My driver side window goes down very slowly.

It starts of slow, the first 4” it goes down. Then after that pretty much stops. I can help it with my hand to get it half way down and then it picks up speed and goes down normal speed on its own. It goes up fast like it should.

Passenger side is perfect speed. I have new window switches in both sidew

What can be done to help my window go down faster? Silicone Lube the window track?

Sometimes it’s also the internal linkage that needs a good cleaning, old lubes/greases either gummed up or ineffective, even binding can occur from the very dry side felt and rubber sill seals at the glass contact.
