Probably the easiest are these rolls of butyl sealant: amzn.to/2QemCxq Unfortunately I didn't have any here so I just ran a thick bead of black permatex and then waited for it to tack up before putting the barrier back on.
You DONT need to remove that outer crome trim. It pulls up and out fine with that thin piece in place. Just fold the seal off the rear edge of the glass and pull up so the rear upper corner is out if the track towards the rear of the car first
This Channel will never run out of content while its focus on the BMW brand. There is always something that needs to be modified, repaired or re-repaired or re-modified or... I have enough trouble keeping one BMW running - you guys have a fleet! Nice job man.
Admittedly all cars do break window regs but i would have liked to think the elite Bavarian barges had unique, special regs that were unbreakable. Its definitely not the case...
I woke up this morning and my rear right passenger window won't go all the way up and can be manually pushed all the way down. Is it necessary to replace the motor if I can still hear it working, or will just replacing the regulator suffice?
Oh That sucks. Have you checked the window runners are clean and it slides smoothly? I common thing is if 1 side is slightly harder for it to move than the opposite side the window twists in the runners and it tries to wedge itself in there which puts a lot of strain on all the plastic parts. I actually put lube on these window runners too the day after this video
@@ZeroTo60Tube they seemed pretty clean when I did them and I always use gummi pfledge on all the rubbers. When I do it again I'll make sure I do all the slides and everything. I hope it's just that and not that the aftermarket ones are just crap because it's the same door not even a year later lol
Yeah same for me Craig, got regulator for rear right and put off the job for a few weeks and now the rear left has gone again, only done it 2 years ago .. lol
Can anyone recommend what the sealing "tack" glue should be?

haha I mean i love it... but I must admit it can get exhausting sometimes with these older models
Background music was way too sexy for this video.
It was funny to put that in. Great video.

Thank s for the tutorial , while I don’t have a BMW it has given me an idea on how these work 😊
I really like your unique wheels, cool look. I've owned a bunch of BMWs and the one I had to do window regulators the most was a X5. Always Breaking.

Absolutely love them awesome tri-spoke wheel! 😍😍
style 38 , look like 19" when they are 17" !
Whoa I need those blade wheels 😮🔥🔥🔥
Nice and in depth for doughnuts like me 👍🏻
🤣🤣
i love those wheels!

I would open the door up and inspect what has failed. But likely the motor is ok.
I'm about to do my RHR regulator, been putting it off for a while, it hasn't completely failed yet but it bothering my ocd haha.
Just noticed your badge!! Thanks so much for supporting what we're doing man. Jump on the reg, not just for your OCD before for your car!!! hehe.
Zero To 60 my pleasure, love the channel and what you guys are doing, there’s not enough Aus based BMW content out there. Glad to help out.
Great video. How long did this take you from start to finish?
Mine is rooted at the moment too, already replaced it once in the same door lol

Man less than a year really sucks! At least you’ll be quick at it now 😅
@@ZeroTo60Tube haha that's true!
To avoid marring the leather I always pop my window switch out from the inside ones the door car is free of the door.
That makes sense, thanks for the tip
y heave the same wheels on my e39 M technik :( if one day y could find the same again on my actual e39...
Done this a few times. On different doors. Over many years ha. They don't last long before it will need another.
I admire you optimism...... haha
Yeah same for me Craig, got regulator for rear right and put off the job for a few weeks and now the rear left has gone again, only done it 2 years ago .. lol
Alot easier than my old IS. Tgat was all riveted in
Yeah any that are riveted in are a bugger. Especially if some of the rivets are in hard to get to spots
Quel est le moteur de l'e39 ?
This is the M62 4.4L v8
You have to pull the glass out and trims off in E60 as well :(
You don't have to hold the switch down all the time. they're automated on e39s, so-called "one-touch". you must have noticed that, mustn't you have...
👍👍👍
Please so mine l don't think think thats an Australian accent though.
The selected audio made sexy what would otherwise have been a very monotonous job.
Hi guys, sent an email to your youtube business listed in description about something maybe concerning
1 dislike from the broken window motor that got replaced lol
Haters gonna hate 😂
