Unhappy Driver's side window

Has anyone experienced the driver's side window making a relatively loud thud after you press the open window button and it goes all the way down? Is this normal? Please advise.

Since no one else has complained that their cars are making this noise, I would say that it is not normal.

is the thud at the beginning? like the air seal breaking?

or at the end of the window down? as if the glass is settling?

My passenger side window does the same, the driver's side window seems ok though...

The thud happens after the window is rolled all the way down.
