In this video I have a look at a customers GMC Envoy that had an issue with the door glass in the rear door. Customer states he was driving and the door glass just fell to the bottom of the door. You could hear some crunching goin on in the door when you pushed on the switch and it didn't sound to good. Let's tear it apart and get this regulator swapped out.

I am a 64 year old retired mechanic. My experience has been the exact opposite. My main hobby is vintage cars. I currently own a 1964 Ford Fairlane and a 1967 Ford Mustang. I have replaced window regulators in both. Both are manual crank windows. Window regulators are not the easiest things to replace on any car, but I found them to be easier than pretty much any modern car. Just about everything is easier to work on on older cars.

That rubber liner looks a lot more robust than the flimsy, foam rubber material they use on most of the cars we see over here in the UK. It's virtually impossible to pull that stuff off without tearing it. I usually end up putting them back on with strips of gaffer tape (duct tape) all over them. Glad I'm retired now and that's one more job I don't have to do any more.

Gaffer tape is not duct tape. It's stronger, sticks better and has to be cut ( can tear it lengthwise).

On the Firebird forums they always recommended aftermarket window motors that have a life time warranty, the thought process was that the aftermarket motors were a quarter of the price of the OEM part, they seemed to last as long as the OEM part, but if they failed, you had a life time warranty. I hope the rain cleared up the smoke for awhile.

@JoseSilveira-newhandleforYT Год назад

That went very easy! My experience with European cars is quite different - it's a pain to get the plastic cover out intact (pegs tend to break) and regulators used to have 4 cables and it took forever to get them out (usually had to drop the glass to the bottom, to get enough space), have them repaired (much cheaper than a new one) and refit the whole thing, praying for no plastic damage.

As a backyard hacker, I have done dozens of regulators and power door lock actuators. Engineers assigned to cococt these contraptions must be limited to C- students exclusively. The cable acuated type was definitely a step backward, they just don't last. I replaced the regulator on my daughter's Town and Country. Every time, the same cable failed. It required removal of an entire interior section of door, After removing the door card, and including removal of the door latch and a half dozen wiring harnesses, speaker and more. The window wasn't bolted to the regulator, you had to pry it off of two plastic clips. The only good thing was , by the third time, I was able to the whole job start to finish in less than an hour.

I sent my other kid to O'Reilly's three miles away to get replacements... and on the way, they lost control of my truck, slid off the road and wrecked it. No injuries, but the truck was totalled. Which ultimately led to the insurance company declining to renew my policy. So those little clips.... they scare me. 😂

@@2tommyrad The roads were not great, but the shoulder was bad, and the grass beyond the shoulder was terrible - long thick matted-down weeds over soft mud, with a couple inches of wet slush. The silver lining that day - apart from "no injuries" - was that the state police said "look, if you have to get it towed out of there, I'll have to write a report, and if I have to write a report, I'll have to write a citation.... soooo....." I said "......soooo if I can get it out of that stand of trees under its own power, and limp it to the collision place down the road, we don't have to bother with any of that paperwork?" Exactly. So with the full blessing of two PA state police troopers, I put the truck in 4WD and just BLASTED it backwards out of the stand of trees where it was buried, backwards through the ditch, and slid to a stop, slewing the front end around sideways to park neatly in the shoulder of the road. That was FUN. 😂

I've always driven beaters (not all started as beaters, but I refuse to swap out a vehicle that runs and drives just because it hits x mileage) and I've changed a lot of regulators (mostly driver's window - probably something to do with my eating habits). That one seemed fairly typical if not a little nicer based on the engineering involved. No rivets to drill out, holes to access the bolts when the thing is all the way up, etc. My dorman experience with them has been fine. I think I had to warranty exactly one, but frankly that one sounded "crunchy" from the beginning, so it didn't so much as fail prematurely, but was defective from the start. As always, nice job, meticulous in your work and I always appreciate that about your videos. Nice touch cleaning the glass at the end, too. I don't always do that on my own vehicles after my greasy paddies got all over it. Thumbs (greasy and otherwise) up.

Don't move to a salt state with safty inspection. The state makes me swap out rides. Some as low as 88k.

@@Wrang15 I live in PA. Plenty of salt here. I replace the beaters when they are unsafe.

@emcque I am in PA too. 30 min from the NY state line. I can't get anything to last more then 10 years. 8 seams to be the average. They just spray brine year round. Paved roads in winter dirt roads in summer. Tar and chip sand blasts all the paint off the undercarriage too. I hate Pendot lol.

Good to see you use the good stuff for cleaning glass.
