E36 Drivers Window Off Track
Starting this thread after the discussion on 'spring thing' thread. Please contribute with your year and model of X3 and the issues you have encountered so far.
One off issues, like PPXYZ's unusual series of troubles, sorry about that, but please keep it off this thread. Please also try to provide the fix if you know. The idea is to build this thread as a buying guide for future X3 buyers. I'll go first.

Hey all, last night I heard something crack or snap in my drivers side door when I was rolling up the window, and the glass just fell off the track. Now it's sitting in the door off balance and the rear of the glass visible above the door line, while the rest is hidden below the door card. Any tutorials online that tell.

Just got the car a month ago through private party. Issues I have encountered since then: 1. Transponder key won't work(system glitch) 2.
Left mirror won't tilt when in reverse, only the right one does 3. Brake pad sensor replaced 4. Takes a few cranks to start sometimes.
