Max, what do youy think about the regulator? Would you replace the whole thing or parts? Also, if I only hear a soft bump when trying to lower the glass (and nothing when trying to raise the glass), does that indicate a regulator or the slider or cable?

BTW, if I failed to mention it, the glass is in the full down position.

Larry, that sounds like a regulator mechanical failure, which is probably
either the plastic slider or the cable.  I don't know what picture you're
looking at, here's an eBay listing with a nice picture:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rear-Door-Power-Window-Regulator-w-Motor-Driver-Side-Left-LH-for-Mercedes-W124-/370854517433

The 124 rear window slider is NOT sold as a separate assembly, but I found
that the W210 front window slider assembly can be purchased separately, and
then one can remove the rivet attaching the plastic part to the metal part,
and attach the new plastic slider to the 124 metal part with a nut/bolt
with loctite, and then you don't need to purchase the entire regulator.

Let me see if I kept a record of the W210 part number...

Thanks Max!  Would a dirty console switch prevent the door switch
working?  BTW, I can hear the motor (?) bump quietly when I push the
switches up/down - It is more easily heard when pushing in the down
direction.

I looked at replacement motors on BuyEuroparts.com and it doesn't look
like a typical motor and gear assembly,   Unless it's just a photo from a
odd angle.  It has what looks like a thin wire - is that the cable you are
speaking of?  I'm used to seeing W123 motors which have a pie shaped gear
section that engages a bar with a gear on it.  I thought this might have a
similar system and it became jammed?  If it's a cable does it ecver jump
off the pulley?  Or does it break before jumping?

I'll understand it better when I pull the door card and lay eyes on the
motor.

I'll clean the console switches and see if that helps.    You ever see
recycled door window lift motors?  I know that's premature but I like to
plan ahead.

TIA.

Larry
