I've been a MBZ tech for 28 years. The biggest problem with instructional videos is, they can be hard for the novice to follow. Yours has excellent , clear, step by step detailed instructions that are easy to follow. I tip my hat to you.

In my 42 years of hotrodding this was by far the best "how to" video I've seen.

This is a short note of thanks to AutoRex. Without your ‘excellent’ video, I couldn’t of replaced my CLS window regulator myself. Thank you 👍👏

Excellent. Thank you. Just what I needed...someone to explain and demonstrate so a six year old could understand it. Well done!

Literally took him 27 minutes that would take me all day.

This is the best how to video I've seen and I've watched hundreds over decades of hobby wrenching. Right to the point, well described, good camera work. Thanks a lot!! This allowed me to get into my passenger seat window of my 2006 CLS55 and the procedure was exact. I'd have spent hours figuring out what all needed pulled on my own, but instead I had it all of 15-20 mins. Had a very loud screeching window when it was rolled down and this allowed me to get white lithium grease on all exposed wire and pulleys (did it while up and down a couple times and once more half up). Didn't need to swap regulator in my case but first half of this video made it so so easy. thanks again.

Thanks very much for taking the time to post this. You've saved me around £300 in main dealer labour charges. Good video and clear instructions. I tried the cheaper eBay repair kit and failed miserably. I couldn't get the cable tension and positions right. I gave up on that and purchased the full regulator as shown here. All working a treat now.

Very well done video. You made this smooth, fast and easy to follow. Under an hour with coffee.

I couldn't agree more with everyone else. BEST video I have seen yet.

I really can not appreciate enough that you made this video, it is great that there are guys like you who take the time to film these really helpfull repair videos! Many thanks to you, this made it much easier for me🙏👍

Have this to do on mine tomorrow. Been a mechanic for 30yrs (on bikes) and I'll be saving this video for doing it. Top class step by step. Best wishes from Ireland, keep up the good work.

Brilliant video. Managed to replace my LH front regulator mechanism without any fuss after watching your video. Just needed to tinker a little with the rear glass mount positioning, now as good as new. Thanks muchly for sharing!

Thanks for this excellent video, it made replacing my broken window regulator in the UK a piece of cake. Wish all videos were as good as this one.

Thank you for an excellent video. Really clear visuals and you point all all the potential pitfalls. I like the way you include every single nut and bolt removal and also showed the fiddly nature of getting out the regulator. A+ !

Great detailed instructions. I replaced my passenger side window and now it works perfectly. Thanks!

Just replaced my regulator on a 2008 CLS 63. Great video!

Would have been lost without this vid. Thanks for posting. Top stuff!

Thanks for sharing this video. I just fixed my CLK500's window switch. Simply sprayed contact cleaner INTO the switch through every possible nook and cranny, and ditto for the connections. Works like a charm now. Thanks again for posting...you're a hero.

Great display on how to do this! Looks fairly easy for someone who follows your instruction. At least it is all bolted together. My w203 c -class had the window regulator secured by rivets which were shared with the side airbags, such a pain. Glad I ran across your video!

Youre the best man. I followed the whole video step by step and now everything works perfectly. Also nicely explained and recorded man. PERFECT

Awesome video, just did my 63 passenger side. Followed step by step and now window is working better than before and no more noise...lol

You saved me $400 in labor! Can’t thank you enough on a great, informative tutorial. I did run into some issues accessing the t30 Torx screws that hold the window due to the regulator not allowing the window to roll all the way up and in line with the access points for the torx screws, so I used a small ratcheting tool and stuck my hand in the door to access it. Also, as a tip for others looking to do the job- cutting the cables of the broken window regulator makes it easy to remove it from the door. I used large wire cutters.

Great informative video, heard a metallic sound when opening my driver side window and just managed to close window, so with your help I’m now confident to see what’s dropped off inside..👍

Absolutely brilliant video . Thank you so much for posting !! Perfect !!

Fantastic Illustration and very easy to follow excellent in every way

Thank you, man! Just followed your doing and sorted my problem 100% !

Beautiful layout of instructions bro 👍🏾

Awesome video!! You saved me $1200 and lots of frustration. Your directions were clear and simple to follow. Thanks lots.

Doing this tomorrow . Think this video will help massively .

great video man ,takes all the guess work out of this repair and saves me a bunch off time ,thanx again

I want to say this is the best video for this job on KZfaq ..... But you left out a main part .... you have to disconnect the subwoofer in the door so you can get to the other screw that holds the window in place .

Excellent video. Great knowledge

Great video! I have to do both driver and passenger sides. Dealer wants $900 per side. Your video gives me the confidence that I can DIY it. Thanks.

Fantastic video, sir!

Amazing video. Everything on the CLS500 is expensive. It's great when I can do some of the repairs myself. Very clear, detailed video. Thanks for sharing!

Many thanks for making a difficult job far easier!

Excellent help. Thanks for such detailed Instruction.

You saved me & my time fighting with it. Thank you sooo much!

Nicely done - well-explained and executed - like #300!

2007 cls 550, thought my window regulator was bad turns out the bolt and bracket fell off that hold the window to regulator, your video was easy to follow and had it done in about a hour thanks a lot for posting this.

Very nice working and explaining

I haven't even started yet but, your video is a real confidence booster and very easy to follow. If you had a camera man so that you could totally focus on the mechanics you would be amazing. Thanks for your help.

I did this on the passenger side before you posted this video and did a lot of things I really didn't have to do. It took me hours! Thank you for posting, because now that I have to replace the drivers side, it won't take me nearly as long with your help.

Great video!!! Greetings from Russia, the city of St. Petersburg

Very good video . Do you have more repair videos on this car ?

top job cheers.

Thanks!

Very good

Awesome video, thanks a lot for this! One question, do you need to re apply that black sealant/glue on the water shield?

Best video

Excellent video 👏👏 Would you kindly tell which camera are you using and is it a camera in glasses?

great job !!!

very good

proper job

Super 👌 très bien merci

wow dude both my cables broke 2 days apart thanks for the video the dealer wants $1200 i can do this myself

I've got three advices for people doing this job. 1. Put a paint marker dot towards both edges of the glass when the door is closed before replacing the regulator. It will give you a good point of reference when you install the glass back to the new regulator and aligning it with the door/seals/b pillar. 2. Make sure to mark a circle around the bottom two screws holding the regulator in place as you need to exactly put it back where the screws are. 3. There are bump stoppers on each side of the glass clamps, you need to adjust these (rotating clockwise or counter clockwise) so that when you push the guides a far up as you can, that the glass is not potruding too much. Again tip no. 1 would help you figure out where the sweet spot is.

Thanks

Great video. Many thanks. How long does it usually take fir a auto electrician or for yourself to do start to finish? Kind regards

ok quick question. i did not see you tighten the front window clamp to keep the window in its place. i saw there is a green plastic shim under the clamp. How do you adjust the window so that it is a perfect fit with no air gaps?

Hey Mate. Tomorrow i will work on my CLS C219 too. Passenger Side Window. Windows goes down but not up. It works after 15min or more and pull the button times and times..

Thank you .. you save me 700 hundred Dollard in the dealership..

Nice one! My dads have gone twice! Anything you can do to prevent them going again? Bit of a design fault!

Wow great job!!! Just did it myself. Dealer part 177 gbp incl vat and 2 hour job at home. Thanks man, cheers! Wow!

Great video! I have to replace the regulator for my 2008 C300. I ordered the part and it doesn't have the nut on it. I haven't had the time to do the job yet, but I haven't been able to find much on the subject. Would it be much different than the CLS? Also if anybody has a link to a tutorial, that would be really helpful.

Dziękuję bardzo :)!!!
