I had a few misc questions for anyone with experience in these areas. I've had my 2004 c70 (manual 2.3 HPT) since last May and have benefited from this forum in learning some about some of the "issues" common to these cars. On this front I had a few quick questions if anyone had experience in these areas:
1) the window regulator - how do you know if yours is ready for replacement? Mine is obviously a bit dodgy (the window goes down with a "thud" and it doesn't sound exactly right) but if I hadn't read about how bad they are, I might not think too much of it. Net, I'm not going to fix until I have to - how do you know? does the window stop going up?
2) the manual gear box - mine occasionally "pops" out of second in an odd manner - this is not right either but again something I can live with. Is this likely a clutch issue or an issue with the gearbox? Anyone experience anything like this?
thanks
