Thank you so much! My dad started doing this repair on my sister's car and had a massive heart attack partway through. I had to finish up as he was recovering in the hospital and this video was exactly what I needed.

Thanks for helping me out on my broken "peg". My left rear window all of a sudden would not rise. Looked down inside the window channel slot and saw that the regulator was working fine but not brining the window up. A bit hesitant to take apart as this was my first Benz (special tools?). I did the extra precaution of removing the positive battery cable first as there is an airbag module in the door. Was able to do the job with a T50 and T25 and a small pry bar. After pulling up the plastic weather sheet, my window was sitting there resting at the bottom just attached to the rails above.. My fingers on the clip broke off so nothing to expand in the glass hole to hold it attached to the regulator. I was surprised used this cheap plastic clip! They could have gone one more and used a nylon screw and bolt too right? The expansion happens when those fingers are forced out by the plastic slopes on that nut that slides in the finger groves when you tighten the screw. So having the info that you presented, I added the washer and screwed it back together. Also, spray some silicone in the track grooves as this might have added to the failure of the clip fingers. Window is up and just in time for the rain that started! Now I know if I had brought this issue into the dealer it would have been $$$$ to replace that plastic clip. Must be part of the weight saving effort by not using metal. Keep the info coming and thanks again.

It's not just the C-Class that has this issue, the W210 and 211 E-Class, and, I understand, early CLKs that also use these plastic window clips and they break very regularly indeed. Some of the Mercedes-Benz specialist parts suppliers can supply replacement metal items that are a lot more reliable, which are ideal if you don't like taking your Mercedes doors apart every year or so...

Nothing more satisfying is when a bodge you come up with to make something work that actually works, did you attend the same course as me, the bodge it and bash it school of engineering. Since graduating I went on to complete the more advanced course called the bodge it and scarper. Keep knocking em out Mike anymore thoughts on the MG. Gary.... England 🇬🇧

@@MonkeyWrenchMike a bodge is an unconventional repair which will work for a short amount of time. Scarper is to make a very quick exit and run away.

It does not enhane you message, and if it offends potential viewers, then you will be limiting the number of viewers who will subscribe. We don't use that type of language in our home and don't allow others (including KZfaqrs) to use it either. I woud like to be able to watch your videos with my grandchildren present, and will not, if I have to listen to bad language. I'm not a hater, and hopefully, you will see value in what I've said.
