Replacement Window Regulators
My 2000 FRC driver side window is making a grinding noise as I roll it up. I watched a Youtube video that accurately reflects what I'm experiencing.
The Carfax on the car shows that the window regulators (perhaps not each side) have been changed about 3 times in it's 68K mile life.
Is there a particular brand of replacement regulators I should look for that solves this problem once and for all?

Had exact same problem with my 2004 - same grinding sound. Window regulator cable is made up of several wound stainless "wires." I had several that had broke and were getting hung up on the pulleys. Bought my replacement regulator from 1aauto.com, $73.95, free shipping. Comes with 2 yr warranty. Replaced mine last June. Perfect fit and flawless operation since. I have ordered from them before and have received outstanding customer service.

I was going to start a thread but this seems close... My drivers side window hits a "bump" on the way down. You can hear it and see the glass shift a little.. Same issue?? 99 C5. Windows and seats, windows and seats..lol
