Had a little drive round and thought I'd have the windows down fully.
Press both window buttons and BANG......passenger window cable snaps
So I get home pop the roof back up and just about managed to get the window to shut by gripping the glass from out side and pushing it up into the roof rubbers.
I had to repair the drivers window about 6 months ago so I've done it before.
Just ordered a repair kit so it looks like being a job to do next week.
The joys of owning a Z4 lol
Yes I found that out when I did the drivers door, very frustrating.Paulwirral wrote:That happened to my wife's z4 years ago when she had it , at least it's an easy job to do , took me longer to get the bloody door card off than to replace the cable mech .
I'll do my best to remember to take pictures as I go, would you like the ones where I take my knuckles off tooChris_D wrote:bad luck old chap.Jollyjoiner wrote:Well the sun is out today so the roof came down.

Ok I'll do my best, there will be a good chance the membrane will be like a patchwork quilt when it goes back on hahahasw4nny wrote:Busted knuckle shots welcome.Jollyjoiner wrote:I'll do my best to remember to take pictures as I go, would you like the ones where I take my knuckles off tooChris_D wrote: bad luck old chap.

If your taking pics it may be worth taking one or two of the membrane before its removed as it may help the uneducated when it comes to the all too common leaking membrane problem,just a thought
Suggest a new bead of silicon sealant / mastic on that membrane to prevent it coming loose. Have learned that from umpteen speaker upgrade jobs on different cars...Jollyjoiner wrote:Ok I'll do my best, there will be a good chance the membrane will be like a patchwork quilt when it goes back on hahahasw4nny wrote:Busted knuckle shots welcome.Jollyjoiner wrote:
