I'm having this problem now my my girlfriends 318ti. Very annoying to say the least. In my case it seems that the plastic sliders have deteriorated slightly and don't hold the ball joints in place properly, but also the regulator arms are slightly bent so I'll need to straighten those out for sure. The BMW dealer in my area has the sliders in stock for 5 euros for the pair so it's no biggie.
What's the best way to get this thing back into shape again? It's fairly sturdy and I don't want to risk ripping it off of the mechanism when I'm trying to bend it.
Many thanks in advance. |
