    Well Done! I have this issue with my M Roadster and this is a short cut to the real fix. Thanks for the video. I think I will clean and reinstall the old stuff with new lubricants. I'm sure it is like you said. Grease gets hard and sticky over the years and causes resistance.

    The way I did it was to flood it all through the window seal with silicone spray and it worked well for me lol.

    I am confused on what you did here?! Did you put new ninja star gears on or did you clean everything and put the old stuff on? I appreciate the video good work.

      I just took it apart piece by piece for practice. I figured I would get it on video incase it helped someone else who wants to take apart their tranny

      Oops thought this was my other video for some reason. Yeah The window was really really slow on the drivers side and the passenger side was sticking. So I remove it and put in new plastic clip thingys and re greased it. Basically the grease gets really hard after years and can not slide which is what causes the window to get stuck.

      Yeah there is a good chance the grease just got old and hard and is now holding the window from sliding . Let me know if you have any questions

      @@morantb yes but I used silicone spray lubricant. At first my window was stuck all the way up past where it should be able to go. But I brought it down and then my new clips weren't fitting. And the only way for me to get them to fit was to shave the edges down a Lil. Idk how that's going to affect them after it is all put back together.

      I am currently having this issue. Window is stuck all the way up and won’t budge.
      Are you saying you could remove the glass and that made the mechanism move freely again??
