Hi,
My girlfriends Brava has a problem with the rear window winder.
They are not the electric ones, but the cable has snapped .
How do I replace it?
What part do I need... Can I just buy the cable?

Any advice?

Cheers

oh no, its a real hassle when this happens.

you can replace the entire mechanism, i believe haynes shows you how to do it. in theory its a simple matter of removing a few bolts, but in reality its difficult to get the mechanism off once the bolts are removed. a scrapyard mechanism wont cost much, but make sure you use some silicone spray on the rubber runners to stop it happening again. all windows should be lubes every year. DO NOT use any oil based lubricant, only silicone spray (with ptfe if possible)

cheers

Jug when you say rubber runners where exactly do you mean? Inside the panel or where the window glass touches to the door? Because i have a small problem when trying to close (They are trying hard!!!:yum. Any pics will be appreciated!

i mean at the sides of the glass where they touch the door.
