Passenger door is acting up. clk 320
 
The door won't stay in the open position, and the window goes half way down and then tilts. Any suggestions? :)

No suggestions. :(

It sounds like the door check may have failed and caused damage to the front window guide rail. Remove the door panel and have a look to be sure.

The door check part came in today, a buddy of mine who owns a body shop is going to help me put the part on an check out the window problem. :D

Hopefully, the broken door check is interfering with the window, but if you discover the window guide rail is bent you may be able to simply grab hold of it and straighten it out. It doesn't have to be perfect to work properly. Let us know what you find.

Yes, I tried to bend it but the metal is stronger than me. Any suggestions Matty Man? :D

The Clk Man 10-18-2011 04:21 PM

Dudes, I think I might be able to do this. I removed the speaker and found the bend in the rail I tried putting a center punch and tapping the other end with a hammer but I can't get enough leverage. I'm to try a small pair of vise grips and see how that goes. any other suggestions welcomed.

If I could just find a way to untwist the window rail I think I could get the window to work. :confused::confused::confused:
