My problem is highlighted below:

I have had ongoing problems with my driver's side power window - will work part way and then grinds and will only continue up or down if I grab and pull up or push down while operating the switch. Found the problem - the white, plastic gear (2 5/8" diameter) inside the motor is missing some teeth. Is this repairable and is this gear available - can I just pull the gear and replace? If so, how - I'm not sure I see how to get it out.

I am pretty sure this is the extent of my problems - regulator seems fine, etc. I would just like to replace the motor (actually I would like to just replace the gear, but I can't figure out how to do that) without tearing the entire regulator out.
