Default Window Issues

Hey i think my passenger side window is toast. Anyone know where i can pick up a new window motor around the gta??

It still works but only when it feels like it. Sometimes it'll get stuck and wont close. It'll roll up half way then roll back down.

Ive done some searching and it doesnt seem to be a new issue for the Z

Thanks

do you still have warrenty on the car? i had both my driver and passenger side motors replaced early in my z's life (around 20k i think?) which leads me to believe it's a common defect.

You havent searched enough

It's a common problem with the Z. I had the same issue and fixed it myself. It's been working flawlessly since then for a couple months. The motor collects all this black carbon inside. You just need to give it a good cleaning.

FYI, Nissan noticed my window wasn't working and they asked me if they wanted it to be fixed. They wanted $60 to LOOK at it.
