I am having trouble with the window motor as many others have. The dealer replaced it once under warranty and it is acting up again. I replaced the regulator since it was cheaper but it looks like I have to replace the motor too. Yes I cleaned it when I had the door open. It looked like there was some wear on the outside of the rotor so I think it is just dead.Anyway, does anyone have a good source for parts online? I would rather new since I think the "re-built" will basically be "cleaned" and back where I started. Local Dealer says they are more than $300.Any thoughts?

You may be able to turn it (the rotor). I have done this many times in a small lathe for other motors. There are also small electric shops that can do this for you as long as it is not in need of actual replacement.
