BMW Repair: 1991 bmw 318is - window down ..., 1991 bmw 318is, bmw 318is


Question
Hi John, for some time there has been an unsettling clunking sound as i raise or lower the passenger window. the window fell foward and i spent some time trying to get it back in place, only to have it completely disappear into the door and will not come up.  how do i remove the door skin?  and will i likely be able to put it back in place or am i off to the repair shop for a shocking bill?
cheers,
stephen

Answer
Though I haven't taken apart this model, the interior door panels usually come off by removing a couple of screws, some behind plasic caps, others holding on door handles or ??.  Then there are usually plastic clamps around the edges.  you may break some of these getting it off.....they are cheap to replace.

Should be able to get it back on without much trouble.  Good luck with what you find inside....should be pretty obvious once it's open.
