Grinding drivers side window

[selleym]

Came back from not using the car for 4 weeks.

Went to put the window down and it was making a grinding sort of noise
Window winds up and down fine no juddering or anything.

This happened to anyone else?
Maybe its just something stuck down inside the window/door...

Any scratches appearing on the window glass ? Sounds like a bit of grit stuck on the seal and when u wound it down it pulled it onto the rubber. May be worth lifting it and giving it a clean.

Did have a look for anything scratch wise didn't see anything. Will give it a proper clean at the weekend fingers crossed thats what it is.

Hi,

I have the same issue.

What was it in the end?

TIA

Not Quite sure it seemed to mostly go away after a while. Maybe something stuck.

sadly its a sign of the window regulator beginning to give up. very common fault and very expensive from the dealers to repair

Few must have sold the car just in time! Was like that for about a year.
