Accuator Driver Side Window

Mine is leaking but still works. Is there any way to rebuild it? If not does anyone know where to get one cheaper than the dealer?

Look under hydraulic top cylinder.
There is a gentleman that rebuilds them for $35.00 plus shipping.
I did rebuild my own, but thats an other story.

For your 129, follow this link for DIY instructions.

Remove both cylinders even if only one is currently leaking, the other won't be far behind....trust me on this. You can buy new replacements from MB or any online parts guys for around $120 each; or you can have them rebuilt by

Dennis has rebuilt hundreds of these things, offers a 3 yr warranty, and only charges $30 each + shipping.
