I only drive the car on sunny days with the top down and have read hear, and on Renntech, that it's an expensive repair job.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

My rear quarter window is not working. It only makes a grinding sound when attempting to raise and lower or when roof is operating. I assume it is the regulator, but wonder if anyone has any experience with this. Is the grinding noise hurting anything? I only drive the car on sunny days with the top down and have read hear, and on Renntech, that it's an expensive repair job. Provided I'm not doing damage I might just leave it inoperable for now. Any thoughts? 2002 996 C4 CAB

you need a rear window regulator, your not hurting angything. Worst case senario you would end up with a window stuck up/down.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
