Well, I thought the 98 3.0 CL was beyond the window regulator problem. So I am on this bumpy road in the rain going to a party when I hit a pothole. Creek, snap and my window fell about half way. Go figure. I wedged her shut and the repair was not too bad.

$136.00 brand new dealer item.
$ 45.00 labor
$ 25.00 transmission service. (gotta stay out of the 3rd trans club)

So, it is all about who you know. The stealership wanted $150.00 for the labor. Screw them and the hole they crawled out of.

All is well now.

yeah, I need a new one too, but Im just goin to get a accord motor (same part) and my buddy is in the glass buisness so he said hed just do it for me

5-speed

only thing is i dont think the accord motor wont have auto-down

danielsmi

If it's on the passenger side it wouldn't matter since there is no auto down.

Ouch man, sucks. Been there, done that.

The loss of auto-down is a myth. The Accord part is the exact same part. Honda charges the same as Acura for this one brand-new. The stealership has us by the balls. If you buy a used one, you might be jacked and if you buy after-market, good luck. This one lasted eight years. Not bad.

VaTECh_CL

mcajka

Take the door panel off and you'll see all that you'll need

WHAT? You paid for it to be done? It's so easy ( i just replaced my 3rd )

Dicorp

yup those regulators are crap...replaced mine 2 years ago on the drivers side and its acting up again....i wil definitely do it myself this time, labor charges suck.

Silentalero

regulators are crap...my passenger is on its way out.

i lost auto-down

klepto

mine just died a few weeks ago. replaced it myself this past weekend. #2 for my drivers side

I wouldn;t say the whole "getting a honda regulator and losing your auto-down" is a myth, it happened to me. It might happen to anyone who gets a new regulator but it happened to me, I'm not losing sleep over it tho..

ajtcl

I know it is easy to do, but man I like my interior tight and right. I broke the plastic tabs on some parts in my Integra and it never was right after that. Screw it, if they break it, they pay for it. If I break it, well... It's on me. I'll pay the labor. It was cheap and they did it without breaking my interior.

peace

WHAT A CROCK OF SHIT.

These windows SUCK ASS!

Hopefully your tranny doesnt go out.

woodek

Wait.......
What is the $25.00 tranny service your talking about??

I didnt think ANY trany anything cost less than $100.00. (flush).
