Hi guys - couple of slight annoyances to solve:
a) the driver's side electric window has been loathe to go up and down for some time now. I've had the motor and regulator replaced twice before EW ran out, but (as explained to BMW :roll: ) the problem appears to be the rubber seals gripping the pane of glass too tightly. I tried peeling it away and squirting some water with a little washing up liquid in down the gap to lubricate it a bit which worked a treat for that day, until it obviously dried up the next and the problem returned :roll:
I know someone posted about his before the server lunched itself - poss Exdos I think...? Anyone got any bright ideas?
b) When driving hard, if I close the throttle above 4000 rpm and allow the engine speed to drop to about that level (most noticeable in 3rd), I get a fairly noticeable rattly noise - sounds to me like something reaching it's resonating level as there's nothing either side of that engine speed.
The VANOS has been done recently under EW, but the noise was there before that too. It doesn't worry me but is a little annoying - again any thoughts?
Thanks
