Hi guys - I wonder if anyone can help me with this problem. I have a 1999 996 with a driver's side window problem. The problem is that with the door closed, if I try to put the window all the way up, it usually doesn't work - gets to the top but then comes back down a bit. The window going up and down also makes a nasty grinding noise, especially near the bottom of the window travel.
I disassembled the door panel and examined the mechanism. Couldn't see anything wrong, but the grinding noise seems to be coming from the motor or the front slider.

This is a classic case of regulator failure. The replacement part will cost you about $200 and it will take you about an hour to R&R the old one.
