The regs on the way out when the window gets very slow/struggles to pull the window up right? I've been told its the reg, and not to use the window, that was about a month ago, window has its moments, he also quoted me over $300 to fix it :/

that can just be from a lack of lubrication. Try lubricating the windows with some graphite powder (or tyre shine is a dodgy alternative that gets used on used cars sometimes) and see if that improoves it...
thats also the #1 cause of regulator failure in near new cars

I use the CRC silicone grease on window runners.
Works great.

I was looking at new reg/ motor as well.. my passenger front window was leaning forward on the way up.

$18 for 808 Silicon Spray from Dlck Smith.. a good squirt at the bottom of the window frames and all is smooth/ fast & no more grabbing / leaning.

I'll see how that goes before I go for a new reg.

Apparently the Nulon and CRC silicon sprays have thinners in them and arent as good as the 808 without thinners.

I thought they were all specific to each door.

What would secondhand genuine front and rear regs, door wiring looms and switches be worth?
