my window has been a lil rattlely (sp) for the last couple years but nothing big. so today i take it out for a drive, and as im putting the window up it stops halfway, so i grabbed it with my hand and eased it back into place. Does any one have a write up on how to fix this? do i need a whole new window? can i just fix it myself? thanks

 

Very easy (and common) problem to work on. Just remove the inside door panel and see what the problem is.

did it happen on your z as well? i dont have time to pull the panel tonight, but what are the problems that people have had if it is common?
thanks

 

The window motors are the most common problem. I changed one because it started to make a lot of noise. Removing the panel is very easy too. Just remove the power window/lock switch assembly and the screw behind the handle (I'm half asleep now, so I might be missing a step here). The rest pulls off.

My passenger window is starting to rattle more than I like, so I'm going to take that one apart and have a look-see.

When mine did that, I was the rail on the bottom of the window that was broken.
Part # 16625875 LH
Go to Shebox's site for easy window instructions removal.
Plan on about 6-8 hours(depending on the beer wagon And interuptions)
Part is about$45.00 at the dealer.Hope this helps.

 

Im having the same problem. Ive had the panel off and saw that the metal bracket that is attached to the glass has broken off of its track. It appears that this piece is riveted to the glass. If anyone has a procedure on how to fix this, it would be a big help. Also, does anyone know the part # for this bracket?

 

I don't think there are rivits for the glass part,but it's been a log time since I did this.When you buy the track,it comes complete with that siver looking giude and everything.Part#16625875lh.Hope this helps.

 

if anybody needs, i have an extra passenger side window with the brackets still attached at the bottom, ill let it go cheap because id is just taking up space, email me at MD9NYC@aol.com

 

I will let you know sometime this weekend when i pull the door panel!

 

I have the same trouble on the drivers side.
There is a bracketing on the window, which connects to the tracking part of the window via a small rotating joint. This joint pulled out of the pressed fitting. I figured buying a used window would be easiest. I'm off ot the yards near me to find one today!
