Cheers JK, but ive just been and seen Willy at Europspares down here and hes gona sus me out. Dealt with this issue on a 4 door swap. The drivers door motors tend to get wet from rain getting in when the window is down. Changing the motor is a much simpler job that swapping out the whole regulator assembly. With the door panel off, you lie under the door and get the 2 downward facing bolts with a torx bit. some wriggling (of the motor) is required to get it back on/in. You can test the motor while out of the door if plugged in but be careful they are quite torquey and will take off across the floor.... Check the plug too, it can get in the wrong place and damaged by the mechanism. I think FL motors is different to PFL but fronts will swap with rears and watch the gasket that comes off between the motor and the housing. Sometimes a good lube will get it going, as is the case with most things........ oh yeah there is a large black washer that sits on the shaft, keep track of it.
