I helped a friend with a similar issue on his 2000 530i. Same story, dealer wanted $$$$. We took the plastic cover off and it turned out one linkage that connects to the motor was loose, tighted that up and everything word for a sometime but failed again 5 or 6 month later. He decided to get a new set of linkage (ebay for a couple hundred bucks) and just changed the entire thing (wasn't too hard to do the change).. If you are not comfortable, ask ur local mechanic to open the plastic and check there first. Good luck
