heys guys, the other week i had my window down and went to wind it up and it was stuck so i forced it and it went up, but from then on it was really crappy like the teeth were worn, so i put grease on the teeth and it helped, but now the window is really easy to wind down (i can push on the glass and it will wind down) and when i wind it up it will come down a bit also, so theres i 1mm gap everytime i come to my car after i leave it.... is the regulator stuffed, if so r they easy to replace???

yep its stuffed. they are not to hard to replace, best to replace the whole reguator assembly as one piece (i think that is the only way to do it anyway) remove doorskin, only tricky part here is unclipping winder handle tape window to top of frame so that the glass wont drop and can hang their by itself. you will then need to drill out the 4 pop rivets that hold the regualor assembly in, it should then drop and you can remove through one of the holes in the door you will need 4 bolts to hold the new regulator in place, just make sure they arent too long that they stick into the door card or scrape on the glass put new regualor in and do it up, some adjustment of position may be necessary but should be ok if you can wind winow up and down. hope that helps
