w124 window won't roll up
Driver side front window stops about 5-6mm from the top, just inside the window seal. It startled me at first because I heard a loud popping/cracking sound all of a sudden, I assume this is a mechanism to protect the gear teeth not the teeth being torn to bits each time I roll up the window?
I checked threads and the door itself looks ok, nothing in the track that I can see to obstruct it. So, does this mean my regulator is bent/broken and will not allow the window to go fully up? Or maybe it is can be tightened up or adjusted? The window is not loose, there is only a little bit of play when it is rolled down.
I'd like your opinion before I take the door apart; this is old car and I risk breaking some plastic bit taking the door off (I was lucky the first time, when replacing the door check).
