How to Fix your Rear Window for a 2004 - 2010 Mercedes CLK W209 

hell yeah! its not to bad at all. in the end of the day. its just nuts and bolts

i see what you mean. it does make sense. i figured the reason why they have the smaller diameter side is to guide the cable onto the pulley because there is a black tab that kind of locks the cable onto the pulley so it doesnt slip off and the smaller diameter sections is the only place the cable can slide on to the pulley between the tab and pulley.. one of mine was bent so i took a hammer and tapped it a little bit to rebend it that way the cable wont jump/slide off the pulley

you cant do the job in about 30-50 mins

your welcome! yes its easier than the radiator. i replace my radiator and water pump before and it was way more time consuming. The only problem i had with the windows was putting the interior panel back on with the hooks that lock the panels together. other than that is was way easier than expected

@@robskates51 the one set back I had was the window was stuck in one area and would not budge any further up. So it was one heck of a task to somehow get to the window bolts. Once that was off I saw the wire was jammed in the wheel pulley and not moving

Hey Robert, just reinstalled the regulator with new wheel and wires. Hit the roll up button but the regulator track stops early. Wanted to see what you think it is. Wires looked perfect but you think the regulator is toast? It goes up and down but not all the way up allowing me to attach window. Your thoughts is you have a chance

@@JashertheGiantKiller you might have to trying clicking the up button instead of holding.. so try doing click and if you can get the window regulator all the way up. if not check the window cables and make sure they are both even. if the wires are getting jammed in the pulley. you will want to try and redo the steps on putting the wire on the pulleys. they pretty much go on one way.. another thing i can think of is if your kit came with one short wire and one long wire you could have them swapped (the longer cable should go to the top of the Regulator track and the Short one should be at the bottom pulley on the regulator track). but if they are both the same length then just make sure when you put the wires on the "Glider" and that it is centered between the two brackets like . 7:31 - 7:40 in the video. check your Gear pulley where the motor hooks up to and the bottom wire should be on the upper part of the gear Pulley and the upper wire should be on the bottom part of the gear pulley. i hope im not making it too confusing.

at 7:52 is what im talking about the Gear Pulley and the wire on top is the one that leads to the bottom pulley on the regulator track ( the bottom is the narrow area of the regulator track).

thank you

butterfly bolt? are you talking about the bottom bolt for the regulator?

if so all i did was to get a vice grip and grip it on the larger flat/washer part of the bolt and carefully squeeze it as best you can and make sure you dont hit the threads or clamp the threads, and just get your rachet or drill and unscrew the nut from the bolt

Hi Robert. Thanks for the post. it looks so simple , but I can’t do mine. If you are in south Florida, would help fixing mine?

@@andrelouis7298 i wish i was in South Florida or else i wouldnt mind helping out. its pretty easy to do once you dig into it

I believe so,I have a convertible.And that side piece is one big piece down to the bottom of the seat

How did u get around it ? I'm in the same predicament ?!

@@motorbreath7174 If I remember correctly I believe using the window roll down/up buttons there was a combination that released the tension on the regulator allowing you to move the window.

But i dont have a regulator because the rear windows dont go down for mine

Did you solve The problem? I have The same one after I fixed the regulator.

honestly you dont have to but if you have a convertible then you might have to do so

Id say it took with about 30-50 Minutes.

@@robskates51 thank you sir
