electirc window

[funbobby]

on the the drivers side the window comes up to about half inch from the top and no more, is this a fairly easy fix?

There is an adjuster/limit stop (at the top of the Goldie cable tube, which is part of the regulator) that can be accessed from inside the brush seal in the centre line of the glass using a screw driver...also on later cars the hood centre panel has a adjustable seal that can come down to the glass (where adjustment of the regulator causes the corner of the glass to damage the hood).

No...The window needs dropping down as far as possible and then you slide your fingers between the door trim and the glass, through the brush seal and you should see the adjuster. (It is odd that this is set so low, beware of spinning the adjuster out and loosing it in the door also of the glass being broken as you fine tune the adjustment) Adrian@

Easy once you find it, but it takes ages the first time (ooer sounds vaguely rude!), you have to persevere... Is it a flat blade I can't recall?.

Yep it's a flat blade and yes it is a bugger to find first time round...a torch and a flat implement like a decorators scraper helps to keep the brushes out of the way and see the adjuster, if you can manage to hold all three at the same time!

cant seem to find anything? out of interest which way am i turning if i do locate it?

That said, mine needs to go up a couple of mm on the drivers side and the adjuster has no effect on my car....
