Window woes
H all I'm having trouble with the Driverside window winder ( it is very very stiff to use) I have taken of the door card and can't see anything jamming or scrapping the only thing I can think of is the runner that pushes it up from the bottom is slightly twisted but I can't see it jamming and someone has fitted new seals which look ok but could be rubbing any help greatly appreciated

Re: Window woes
I had a similar problem and it turned out to be the felt runner inserts in the frame, they looked ok but one side pinched the window slightly and it then tilted diagonally a fraction and the corner of the glass began to dig in even more making it virtually impossible to move.......

Re: Window woes
Did you take the felt out or did you replace it?

Re: Window woes
if you dont replace the felt the windows will shake, vibrate and bash off the metal runners eitehrside, which take it from me is very very annoying.
