[QUOTE="Settanta2, post: 276817, member: 4174"] Hi All, I’m new’ish here. Long time member, finally picked up a C3 last summer and starting to work through some of the issues. Overall very good condition car, previous owner had taken good care of it. I brought it home, rolled the windows down and removed the tops last year. Wasn’t until I was ready to put it away for winter before I tried to roll up the windows. Passenger side worked, drivers side did not. Pulled the inner door panel off and confirmed power to the motor, ordered a new motor over the winter. Finally got the car out of storage and pulled it apart again today. Struggled and the old motor out. Putting it back together is going to be tougher than expected. Instructions (which I read afterwards of course) say to make sure the window is rolled up first. I couldn’t do that anyway, but would have made the job significantly simpler. Now all the window adjustments will have have to be done again. Looking to see if anyone has had a similar experience and looking for advice of lining it all back up. My doors need some adjustment also, so thinking I should get the window motor installed, add shims to the door(s) and then take the time to adjust the window properly once! The window regulator is going to be the challenge to start, lots of info available for adjustments. Though if there is someone locally (London ON) I’d happily take it to them for this finicky work. Thanks! Trevor [/QUOTE]
