When using the auto-down function on the driver's window ('98 V70 basic), I hear a loud snapping sound when the window is approx. 3-4 inches from the full down position. There's no corresponding noise when the window is run up, and although I've only tried this once, the noise doesn't seem to occur when the window is run down incrementally. There's no sign of any obstruction as the window is moving,just the noise. I've been reluctant to repeat the operation too often before getting inside the door to look it over, but I'm wondering if anyone out there has experienced this, and if so, what might I look for, or expect to see?
I think I've got all the info necessary for the removal of the door liner, but any recent clues in that area will be appreciated, as well.
Regards,
Garth.
One last thing - this situation has just started up in the last week or so, and as we're both trying to fend off the effects of our most recent fuel surcharge, the vehicles aren't really racking up the K's, so this has literally jumped up out of nowhere...
