2002 window dip question
My c2 has started to intermittently not dip the front part of the passenger side window when the door is opened. The rear portion dips fine and I can push the front part down rather easily. window raises fine after the door is closed when the front section is pushed down.
I remember reading a post about this where it was suggested to try and force the window down... I can't find it now and I cant recall what this test indicates...
any ideas as to what needs replacing?
thanks

But in your car's situation, the window dipping just the rear portion of the window and not the front portion suggests a mechanical problem with the window lift hardware. Thus I believe removing the inside door panel and giving the door's insides, the window lift mechanisn a thorough checkout even operating the window while the cover is removed, should have you spotting what the real problem is.

Sounds a lot like your window regulator is due for replacement. I just replaced mine on my drivers side on my '03. When I opened the door handle, you could hear the window motor run briefly, but the window would not actually mover. I could however gently push it down the 1/4 inch or so that it was supposed to move. I replaced the regulator and once again it's working normally. You should be able to find a regulator (new but not OEM) for just over $100. Not too difficult if you want to replace it yourself. It took me about 2 hours following a DIY.
