Window regulator again

Just pulled in the driveway, rolled down the window to say hi to the dogs and heard the unmistakeable grinding noise of death on my driver side window. This will be the second one in 60,000 miles. I didnt even bother to take a look just ordered another from rock auto. What a great part in an expensive vehicle. Thanks for listening to me gripe.

Try an OEM one instead of an aftermarket one. The quality of the materials used in the AM one could be substandard.
