anyways, yes i am a victim of the power window motor, so my oem went out like 2 months ago called up tony @ riverside, he said it was 170, they sell one every day im like nah, its cool, went to kragen got the universal, has lifetime warranty on it, so anyways mine went out again so i went back to kragen they got me another one it works now but its a bit slower, but yes i did the labor all by myself so roughly has done the same procedure about 6 times, so if any of u guys in socal need help, i'll help you guys install it, i know how bitchy it can be -_-, just pm me if u guys have any questions

 

Yea alotta people go through them on the first gen coupes...I replaced my passenger one at 30k miles...Luckily Im under warranty so i paid nothing

 

Found it for $130 at autozone with a $40 core deposit.

 

I may try this considering my passenger side window motor has not worked in like...forever LOL!!

 

My Driver side sum times decides to not work unless i punch the door a couple times. I feel like im cheating my G by gettin aftermarket parts 8-(
then again im not in the same boat as most of yall. <-- not derogatory

 

For what it's worth, I had my driver's side motor changed at 30k.

About how long does it take to change it, Johnizzlee?

 

after u been through it 5-8 times it takes only 15 mins not so hard, but for first time at least 30 mins i say

 

Thanks. I think the dealership charged $479 to change it.

 

all u have to do is punch the door a little right in the center while pushing the button for the window at same time......lol.... it does work.....

my drivers side window doin it again.... will be 3rd one and no longer under warranty.... my 03 350z had to have both window motors swap 3 times too..


i need a drivers side motor now...

 

i think i may have the same problem too, for me to get it to work i push down on the window and push down on the button...it'll be good for couple of weeks before it dies again...

 

i thought someone came up with a permanent fix for this problem?

too lazy to search.

good luck! i might be the one searching when mine goes out (hopefully never)

 

it's nopt cheating, you're upgrading... i'd leave a 7 for a 9 if they had the same personality ahaha
