Hi, yesterday after lowering my drivers window it would not come back up. After stripping it down this morning I found one of the bars had snapped, so another mechanism was sourced and after a fifty mile round trip the new one purchased and was fitted as soon as I got home only to find it stops about an inch from the top and starts ratcheting. Am I to believe that there is a way to adjust the mechanism or is the one I bought also faulty ?
Please HELP P38 Drivers door window mechanism problem

I think the one you have is faulty...the gear teeth have stripped causing it to skip about and knock.
Sorry!!

I agree its the gear teeth, I had it on mine but I managed to strip it down and tighten up the teeth and a bit of straightening and it is fine now. If you cant fix it I will see if I have one you can have.

I would check that the plastic stop is still in place and also the mechanism has not got a crack in it as that can cause the gears to start racheting
