windows buggered

Hi,does anyone know if theres a repair kit for the front electric window winder mechanism as my cable has stripped itself and clogged up the motor.or better still where i can buy a new job lot.

Hi there, I have just had the same problem this week. Had to buy a second hand regulator for £50 from a breakers yard.

Cheers for that mate, but our lass wont have one. They are too big for her to drive and we dont need 2 cars.

Check thread http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f9/window-mechanism-40092.html it might help

pitty about the mrs
mine was the same till i got her her own car
oh my god wimen drivers
but i'm now tryin to talk my mrs into lettin me have a defender while she has the disco
i think i'm half way there coz her car suzuki baleno has a oil leak from the bellhousing on the gearbox
an its gonna cost about £200 for the clutch alone
60quid+vat for defender/ disco thats more like it

an to top it off its gonna take about a month ta get one japanees ****e

I really want a disco but there is no converting her. She likes her Hippo and thats the top and bottom of it.

Yeah thats the only prob with getting a slitty, parts are pricey and are hard as fook to get hold of.

Is that not just your mrs driving?

Are you sure the frayed cable hasnt just caught or jammed the spindle? Take the regulator off and have a look. Go for the £3 bike brake cable fix if the regulator is still working. search for the brake cable method.
