R129 door windows

Anyone got any experience of problems with R129 door windows?

One of mine is dropping the back edge before the front so that when you open the door, the window drops half an inch as normal but then strikes the front edge of the hard top when you close the door.

I had this. The glass had come out of the runner mount at the bottom of the glass.

Graham.

Do you have a fast connection?

No I don't. living out here in the sticks, there's no broadband. I've had the door replaced after crunching it and the innards of the door have not transferred across 100%... I'll check the runners though. Thanks

Turns out there are *5* separate adjustments to adjust the motion of the glass as it goes up and down. Who was it who said Mercedes are over-engineered?!?!?
