That sucks Doc, I'm sorry to see your misfortune. I wish you were closer, I'd fix your window for you. I've mastered the window coming off track problem. Maybe I could walk you through the process, LMK if I could help.

Same thing happened to me on my 95 318ti. Just go buy 2 window clips from Bavarian Auto, cost about $3 a piece.

if u buy new window slider clips this shouldnt happen again for at least a year or two. me, i just pop the window back on the slidy clip every 3-6 months. (i can never be arsed buying them). your nearest bmw will stock them, about $4 each.

Dude,
I had the same thing happen with the glass about a month ago, passenger side too. My glass was frosted over and I went to roll it down so I could see out into an intersection and there was a loud pop followed by the glass dropping down on an angle. Scared the crap out of me. I have to do mine when the weather warms up, til then, no passenger window (just wish the wife would remeber...)
