How Bad Is It - Rear Window Regulator Failure!
XK8 / XKR Owners,
Just had my passenger side rear window fail! Electric motor seems to be working. I have not disassembled anything yet. How Bad Is It? Has anyone done this job before (repair rear window regulator)? Any suggestions on procedure and/or required parts?
Thanks,
Phillip

Also recommend the trick of removing the window glass 'guide' near the top (a single bolt, easy to get to). This then makes it a lot easier to get to the three torque bolts that hold the outer window seal in place. I found that the easiest way to undo the front one was to use a short torque hex bit in my miniature 1/4" ratchet (this has saved me several times - it will fit almost anywhere)
Good luck!
