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)

Hello Gyus,
Are those clips (#51337342897) doable to be replaced without removing the window regulator from the door?
I guess it wont be possible, but...?

 

Hello,

You would have to take the inside door panel off an then reach up in the corner. Maybe possible but its tight.

Then that inside section.
