« on: 16 May 2006, 09:16 »

In a semi-hijack way, I've got a similar problem, if I close the door with the window down it sounds like the glass is going to smash. Not much help to Gambit but maybe it's the same thing?

Might be worth whipping the door card off and having a look behind the plastic sheet and see what the state of the support runner is and the guide runner going to the top of the window, it's possible that one end might have popped off and loosened the windows sitting position.

On another note, my drivers window just doesn't go back up when it's been put down, it just sits there farting at me.  :cry: :grin: Must fix that.

I think its the bit that runns along the bottom of the window on the inside and out that hold the glas tight. I seem to remember mine doing the same and after i pulled it off and re seated properly it was ok.
