e36 front window problem

[Doomsdaya]

Thanks guys :thumbsup:

@Ray: when the window goes up, its not in channel, in other words its not aligning itself straight but going skew....

Unfortunately I hit a brickwall with my DIY :flyfun: Manage to get the black clip around the pull trigger out, the door pin, the electric mirror controller & those two little plastic covers under the door handle for the 2 screws. Right now its those 2 screws thats giving me a problem :facepalm: first of all its at an awkward angle & the handle bar is blocking it, second the screwhead is a hexagon, so a 4 star screwdriver isn't gona work....

Oh well, will see what tomorrow brings LoL....

For the handle bar in the way you can lift up the door pad and it should move a bit to give some room. Also the screws are angled downwards so your screw driver should fit.

So on Saturday with the right tools, got to taking off the door panel & it was the inevitable... as per Guetzer pics, the plastic wheel in the guide broke off :floggin:

New Mechanism R500 - R700 Good price ?

or can Gizmo make me one with a copper washer....

So on Friday I took my car to Gizmo & before he could greet me I was greeted by 2 very friendly dogs :rollsmile:

The man is genius raise: he removed my mechanism, fitted a new metal roller, greased it up nicely & put everything back in its place :thumbs:

Now my window works the way it should, I don't have to roll the back window to pay for toll gates LoL :biglol:

I would recommend Gimzo to anybody on the forum :ty: Gizmo
