wobbly window

Bought the mini with a wobbly window which i'm trying to fix right now.... I did search around and found some tutorial on youtube suggested tightening 4 torx bolts on the window regulator, that didn't fix it.... does anyone know how can i fix this problem?


Thanks in advance.

Window is not tight on track or the little nut gear is not tight on window. Seal on regulator is worn.

^^^ What he said. Check the nylon gear. It's what holds the glass to the regulator. You can use a flat screwdriver and hammer to loosen and tighten it if you're careful (and also if it's similar to an R53)
