Anyone have a door diagram.

Well, before I start to tear into the door panel to fix whatever is stuck in there, any one have a picture a write up on how to remove all of it.

And yes, I already checked the window switch, plus I hear movement from the door when I hit the switch.

Is the window not moving?

If so, with the car on, and the window switch in the down position, bang on the door above the speaker and below the handle. That should fix it temporarily.
Just ask GBMINI

Then make an appointment with your SA to have them replace the window motor.

It was having trouble going up. It was jerking, I thought it was just sticking on the track.

And before anyone jumps down my throat for not going sooner, I live 4 hours from my nearest MD.

Thank you, I will try that for now.

Well, I have an aftermarket warrenty, 100 dollar deductable. So it will have to wait until I have other issues to get finagled together.

According to the dealer this is a known issue with BMW cars at all price points. What it (usually) is is the gearing between the motor and the window - since the BMW windows roll up and down a few inches when opened, the gear teeth in just that small spot can wear out and break, and then jam. It happened to my passenger side at 10,000 miles and they fixed it under warranty.
