Hi,
My drivers side window needs fixed & with a bit of luck I'd like to fix it myself this week. For a couple of years now the window would make some complaining creaking noises when wound up & down on hot summer days when the glass was hot. But last summer it gave up the ghost completely & now it fails to crank up or down, though the window is still fully closed.
I'm going to get myself one of those fork shaped pry tools to remove the interior trim clips and winder handle, once this is removed my understanding is that there's a thin polystyrene type material adhered to the door which can be removed with a craft knife. Beyond this stage I'm in the dark... I would be grateful if someone could give me some pointers/info for making the window functional again & whether I need to buy any replacement parts.
Many thanks
