Part 1 BMW E39 Rear Electric Window Repair

[mosaicfusion]

Hello great instructional video... however i have encountered a problem trying to remove the window guide on the exterior of car... is there some hidden screw(s) or adhesive holding it secure??? i have removed the three screws from the interior and tried pulling the guide up and wiggling it but to no avail... i actually have now slightly bent the guide... i own a 2000 528i

When i was trying to close the window of my e36, I heard a noise of something breaking and my windows stopped working. I think the mechanism is still workig because it can hear it going up and down and it even rolls the window down a little bit. But i cannot roll the window back up. there are some noises produced if i try to roll the window. what do you think is the problem in it.

@sptslash the wire has broken or come off the regulator.

Great video mate, I only needed to see how the door card was taken off as my lock motor is faulty. Very well narrated and in a clear and see put together format. Cheers

Another great video, very informative for a long term problem I have tolerated and ignored beause I can't afford BMW dealers 1K price tag that I can do for 25 bucks.

Thank you!

Excellent video. Loved the attention to detail (where clips are etc.). Just what I needed to know to fix my '99 540i Sport. FYI I just managed to order the regulator from eBay for £35 delivered.

I hope you continue to make other videos like this. Perhaps "How to fix reverse parking sensors when they just emit a high-pitched beep"?!

if my window still rolls perfectly, but it doesnt roll all the way up, (it stays stuck at about 1-2 inches before sealing completely, do you think it might be the regulator?

[DebenDave]

@slitheredxscars probally. The best thing to do is to take the inside off as per the video and see what it is doing.

Thanks a lot for making this video. The regulator on my E39 has just failed and intend to repair it with your video and the kit.

thanks so much for your video I have a 323i 2000, where did you get that modification to go on the regulator. I've ordered a window regulator I would like to modify mine

Excellent Information - Many thanks you have saved me a few hundred quid! I watched all 4 videos and ordered the modification... I look forward to a bit of DIY. One point for improvement - your footage being hand-held and solo was like being on a rollercoaster for 20 minutes... it´s not easy to watch... but I stress, very informative, many thanks.
