My window on the driver side goes easily down but when i press it to go up it goes really slow and stops, but if i help it up with my hand it continues to go up and shut. I have taken out the regulator but it seems that it is fine(goes smooth both ways) and i wonder if the cable might need lube...

Hi All, Recently had had an issue with my driver's side window that will not roll-up. As the regulator sounded fine I opened the door up to see if it has come off its track and if I could put it back on... I found this part (that looks like it has snapped off) at the bottom of the door and I...

Hello Everyone! Hope you all are doing well. I am thinking of replacing my windshield on my 03 330xi, I go to the junkyard a lot for many parts. If I go and I find a good windshield, how hard would it be to take out of the junkyard car? And then take out my cracked windshield and put in the...

Hello Fanatics, My 2003 330i is approaching 250k miles, in large part thanks to the knowledge shared here. I just rebuilt my lock cylinder (2nd time since I've owned the car) because the little cast piece inside broke. Put the cylinder back in the door, and found I couldn't turn the key to...

Ever since I bought my zhp about a year ago there has been a rattling in the door when going over bumps if the window isn't up (maybe a broken clip holding the window) but the window was going up and down fine until recently so I ignored it. In the last month or so my auto down has stopped...

both of my rear windows have stopped working and one is up but the other window is down. when i try to roll it up or down, it makes a bad crunching noise. does this mean that the regulator has gone bad? anything would help

Hey everyone, Having some trouble with my front windows (05 M3 vert) Both of them work with the individual window switches, but the master window switch is only able to bring the front windows down, not up. At first it was just the left front window that was having this issue, but the right just...

So my regulator has gone bad and the cables are a mess so I need to change everything. I can't seem to find a DIY video or instructions anywhere to work on a coupe. Any experiences on installation and adjustment? I'd appreciate it.

Hi, I have an BMW e46 convertible/coupe where the driver side window is kind of loose in tilting and also tilts out a little bit. This causes the window to not slide up in the seal properly when closing the door. I have adjusted the window as much as I can by removing the door-side and turned...

2000 323i - Passenger window worked fine, the other day it got stuck half way down. Hit the switch to bring it all the way up, it went up till about 2.5-3 inches just shy of the top. I think its registering that it is all the way up but in fact isn't, (opening and closing the door it moves...

So I have a 325xi and my passenger window rolls up and down but not more than half way. I'm not very car savvy but I've heard the window regulators are common problems in these cars, anyone know if this is a regulator problem or something else?

Good day, everyone. I have a 2001 325i in which the left front window has a pop noise when going up or down, and a gravel noise when actuated, both issues being in different spots of window travel, but consistent either up or down. I have replaced the regulator, lubed/adjusted the guides, and...

I'd like to start my post by thanking everyone who contributes to this forum for making my life way easier when purchasing this E46, the opinions and knowledge here are amazing, so thank you. Here's my issues: Knew that the driver's side window was not working when I purchased the car but knew...

I have an 01 330i and just recently, my driver window wouldnt roll all the way up, it makes a lot of noise when it does. Now, it only rolls down, a few inches, and is difficult to get up. I have to hit down and up several times to get it to go all the way up. And sometimes i will have to...

Hey there, Unfortunately the worst window that could have possibly broken on my touring, broke on the freeway the other day. I don't know how it happened but my rear hatch glass just shattered on I90. So, I need to replace it and FAST, does anybody have a website or possibly a spare I can...

Hey guys soo question about the Winshield washer reservoir tank . Soo i ilive in Los Angeles, and it NEVER rains i dont think ive ever used the washer fluid for anything. And we all know that bmw engines are jam packed and the tank is abnormally HUGE soo if i could relieve some space for it then...

Hi all, I'm a new e46 owner and this is my first post on the forum - probably of many, so hello and thank you in advance for any advice you can offer me. Today I started tackling the first of many jobs. Starting with a new MAF which took all of 5 minutes and what seemed an extremely overpriced...

I'm hoping this isn't a regulator issue, and a relatively easy fix... My driver side window has been gapping lately. It still does the 1/4" drop when I open the door. When I shut it, it looks like the first picture attached. It's not always that wide, but most of the time it is when I close the...
