I've had to repair all four window mechanisms on my W124 over a period of several years. The rears had failed slider jaws, and the fronts had trashed the gearbox attached to the motor. The odd noises you are hearing may be due to the gearbox going south.

Unfortunately, you can't buy one new without having to purchase the entire window mechanism. Your best bet would be scrounging for a used mechanism...
