Lost another window regulator today.
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUK!!!
That's 2 @ about $300 a piece. Service guy tried to tell me that it isn't a chronic problem with these cars and also that internet message boards tend to blow things way out of proportion. That made me feel all better.

aww shit man. my driverside one went out a few months ago. it was 105 out that day and my window got stuck down
once it was fixed, it was twice as fast as the passenger side
the pasenger side feels so slow like its gonna go out any day. Oh welli got 40k more warranty left

Out of proportion? I've had both of mine replaced too. I took that seal out that's to the rear of the windows. I think thats what strains the motors. They fly up and down now.
Unfortunatly, when the seals are removed and the windows are down, you can see some screws. I don't care what they look like. Especially if I don't have to have another motor changed out. I don't have my windows down too much anyway.

Thanks for the offer. I just got mine back from the dealer... $270 - some odd dollars later. I tried doing it myself the first time around and it just ain't worth it for me.

Its because of the damn seal that he talked about taking off. It puts too much resistance against the glass and causes the motor to overheat and die.
