the drivers side window motor on my car took a crap.. where can i find a new one besides ebay or the stealership?

 

dude i checked everywhere....and it really became a hassle because my window was down and wouldnt go back up so i just got it from a local shop who ordered it from a nissan dealership with a little discount. bottom line if u find one somewhere for less than 300 let me know cause thats what i had to pay but installing it wasnt that bad

 

A couple of guys here in Austin got them from Autozone. They were ~ $140 IIRC and they came with a lifetime warranty.

 

Doesn't riverside carry them? Marketplace also.

 

i got mine at autozone. i remember it being 190 minus 30 for returning the bad core. has worked perfeclty since... 07

 

market place. ive got a used one for sale. 22k on it when removed. works perfect

 

^price?

 

$65

 

well i dont know if its the motor or the regulator.. the window stops going up spurratically. and when you close the door, the window automatically rolls down half way. i had to disconnect the motor for now..

 

sounds like the motor to me. teeth are prob messed up on the gears and its skipping and causing the motor to get out of time. that is why it rolls down halfway

 

I took my door apart when I was gonna replace the motor, but I ended up cleaning all the greasy gunk out of the old motor instead and it's been working like brand new for about a year now.


if you don't wanna spend any money just take a bit of time and fix it yourself, when you take the motor apart you will be able to see if the gears are worn out (I highly doubt this is the case) it's most likely greasy gunk you need to clean out
hope that helps

 

the fact that your window moves smoothly means that your regulator is fine. most likely motor. i agree on the gunk clean up fix, since these motors are known to go bad just because of dirt. dont forget bout the door slam fix also if your window goes open.
