One way to skip all this would be to just buy new regulators, expensive, but I recall someone saying theyve been redesigned.

Im going to add the screw and see what happens. worst case I still need a new regulator. it looks like if there is a stop to push the tracks in the front to back motion it wont be able to bind. I cycled mine up and down 50 times and it works perfectly as long as the little arm stays below the big arm. there is a hole in the regulator that kinda lines up with what looks like a stop pad on the window pin tab. i wonder if there is an original MB piece that goes there that could have deteriorated and fallen off. has anyone seen a brand new regulator? rather than drilling a hole I may just bolt on a stop through that hole. will post progress, if it works Ill post the drawing of the piece I make.
