Window stuck...Gear?

Window stuck...Gear?
The driver side window on my 04' Rx8 gets stuck about half way down. If i grab it and pull, it will move again. It also sounds like grinding gears when the window closes all the way.
I had the same issue if a Mazda CX-7 I owned previously. So I guess it's a common problem? Or am I unlucky...?
If you had this same problem, and it was the plastic gear, where did you purchase it from?

I have not yet taken the door apart.
From what I found on Google, it would be the Window regulator that houses the gear that normally goes bad, correct?

About a minute and a half of annoying music, but it's pretty simple to replace the gear alone.
And the gear needed. Should be the same for the following:
2004-09 Mazda 3 ALL DOORS
2006-10 Mazda 5 ALL DOORS
2008 Mazda 6 ALL DOORS
2006-07 Mazda 6 (excluding Speed6 Models) ALL DOORS
2003-05 Mazda 6 ALL DOORS
2007-12 Mazda CX-7 ALL DOORS
2007-12 Mazda CX-9 ALL DOORS
2004-2011 Mazda RX-8 ALL DOORS

Great find! The passerby side window in my R3 started doing that yesterday.
