wobbly window
« on: 16 April 2007, 11:03 »
my drivers window has started to tip forward when trying to close, this seems to jam the glass and stop the window going al the way.
If I drop it back down a taj and then go back up it closes.

What is likely to have failed and how did I fix it.

They are electric btw!

Mine did this for a while, you need to adjust where it sits on the bracket inside.
Here is a link on how i cured it.
