1994 E320 Sedan, with 158K.

I've had a problem with the drivers power window for some time. At first, the wind started whistling at the top, and I thought I needed a new seal.

Then, it began sounding like a cogged belt was slipping on a nylon gear down in the regulator system, and the wind noise got louder.

Now, the window won't close without leaving a tiny gap at the top, and the 'cogged belt slipping' sound', is weakening to more of a muted rattle.

I havn't seen a diagram of the regulator and motor, but the sound is so distinctive, I thought someone out there might have an idea of what it likely is.

For now, I've applied a nav system suction cup to the window, and am able to lift it tight now and again while running the motor up.

Any help would be much appreciated.

No worries. Found exactly what I was looking for right here!

They all wear the last row of gear teeth out b/c guys hold the lift button too long after the window is up.
