Window Winder E36 328i

[Wick-ed]

Can anyone assist me please. A wheel in my detailer [See pics] broke. Does this mean that I will have to replace the complete mechanism or just the wheel or arm.

Chances are you will have to replace the whole mechanism unless you can find one at a scrapyard

I gather that much as that little plastic wheel and arm are pressed. Does not screw off.

Mine is on its way out .... May be best to remove the mechanism from the door , drill the item out then use a few washers and a new bolt , or get a wheel made from polyurethane or engineering plastic ( Vesconite etc . )

I want to later remove mine and have a few wheels made .
A new pirate item is about R600 or so .
God luck .

Probably the most commin complaint around, mine has been through two pirate mechanisims and now has one I found in a scrap yard, works a charm.

Passanger door gave up the mustard today as well. Damn windows!
