Hi everyone
My drivers window has been making some worrying noises recently so I stripped the door down today and took the glass out so I could get a real proper look at what's going on.
Looks like the very end of the cable has freyed where it feeds into the motor. Looks like only one strand of the wire has become loose but its making a horrible scratching noise and needs replacing.
Now I know I can just buy the cable, slides etc minus the motor from BMW but I've been looking at this http://www.windowregulatorshop.co.uk/bmw-z4-convertible-cabriolet-window-regulator-repair-kit-front-right-1132-p.asp and wondered if anyone else has just replaced the cable?
Seems like a much cheaper option and far less wasteful.
Any thoughts?
Thanks
