mach1ne Posted October 8, 2009 Report Posted October 8, 2009 A few months ago the passanger front window was opened most of the way and mad a funny rattling noise, and when I went to close it the window made a bang noise as if something broke. I took it to the guy who does my services and he had a wee look and said that it has a broken linkage. I did not do anything about it and now the drivers side has done the same thing, only this time I had to manually pull up the glass up whilst operating the switch, it took lots of uping and downing and pulling of the window before I got it closed. Has anyone had experience of this and if so what's the parts I will need to fix cos I need to know if I'll have to rob a bank to pay fo the cost of buying parts from Fraud Motors. Thanks in advance Quote

Bigjeeze Posted October 8, 2009 Report Posted October 8, 2009 Take a look on e bay there are always some window mechs for sale there - and I am sure they will be cheaper than frauds. Quote
mach1ne Posted October 9, 2009 Author Report Posted October 9, 2009 Thanks guys, I guess i'll be taking off the door panels this weekend and seeing what the damage is. I take it that it is straightforward enough to take the door panels off? i.e no hidden catches etc.. Quote
Bigjeeze Posted October 9, 2009 Report Posted October 9, 2009 Someone recently did a post on this subject and someone lesle (it might have been Big Kev) posted a PDF file showing you how to do this. Quote
