Power Window jammed?
So the other day i opened the door and heard a super loud clunk noise come from the door and when I turned the car on and pulled hte window down it wouldn't go down all the way, only about 75% of the way so I assumed like BMW cars the window motor died but oddly it continued to go up and down just now 100% down.
Then 3 days later when I came to drive teh car again the window went down to the 75% mark and now its jammed there with no movement even if I tried to lift the window up myself. Usually a broken motor allows this to happen but since it isn't budging I am wondering if its an electrical issue with the power window button more than the motor?
I say this because when i try to lower the passenger window from the driver side it works than out of no where on the 3rd time it wont move at all than 5 minutes later it will move or if it doesn't move I just go and pull the window down from the passenger side then i come to the driver side and try it and it works again than it'll stop again. So maybe its the power window control buttons on the drivers side thats failing? anyone have ANY idea?

Mine did something similar. The glue holding the bottom of the window on the track had broken loose. I took the door panel off popped the glass off the track and reglued with some epoxy. works now!
