sven007 0 Report post Posted May 22, 2006 It is the second time my right side window has started to play up and will not go down! The first time it did it I was to laxy to check it out and about 5 days later it started working again but now I realise if I keep leaving it, it will end up getting worse. Does anybody know how to sort these out as I hear it is quite a common problem with the 3 series. :banghead: :banghead: Thanks Guys Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not always permanently. You can pull the door apart and lube it up. Otherwise, replace the mechanism. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sven007 0 Report post Posted May 22, 2006 So you know the average pricing for a new mechanism? I will first try give it a luve up after a couple of days as I just got my windows tinted and am not allowed to use the windows for 2 days! Bugger.

sven007 0 Report post Posted May 22, 2006 Sorry forgot to mention but yes the button does work as I can hear clicking noises. Would this mean that I dont have to buy a new mechanism? :drugs: :drugs: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
