Default correct. I'll open it up this weekend..

and see what is going on. It goes down fine, but on the way up there is a strong clicking-and obvious resistance-every 3-4" of travel. Worst case it's the regulator. Hopefully some clip has busted.

Default If you have to replace it, make sure you re-adjust it to the top

otherwise you'll get windnoise and funny sounds over bumps

Default not to mention H2O, like today it rained all day. The doors are really out of line

Have you ever had to realign your doors?

Default I got mine for $60 shipped ... will be here on monday

I also found a reasonable place near me to do the install ... he specializes in electronics and power windows not AUDI's and foreign cars so his prices are right ... wont know the final til its installed.

Default Yes, the Bentley has the measurements, just need a good eye,

The measurements will be off if the car has been hit and not properly repaired, so if you have been in an accident this may be whats causing the misalignment. Cab frames unfortunately are not very well constructed rigidity and strength wise, they have excellent flex but its a little much.

Take a look at your door hinges and move the door back and forth slowly, say about 6 inches, this will check the hinge.

Default I used to drive to work on some pretty bad roads

and it would shake car pretty bad. I would have to drop all the windows to keep them from slamming against each other. I will have to play with the alignment on the doors, then the windows. There is quite a bit of wind noise and water that comes through.
