Hi everyone, thank you for the tips. I ordered the clips from Amazon and they came today (thank you for sunday delivery Amazon Prime). At any rate, it was exactly the problem. They were worn bad, one completely broken. It was only a 30 min job. I have experience taking the door apart as I have had to replace both my door handle arms already.

Great fix for $8 and 30 mins of work. Guess the passenger window will go next.

Thanks again

Could you link the Amazon item you ordered, please? I might order some just to have on hand.

51338254781 is for the front windows. Two needed per window.

BMW version should be around $1.26. Generic is like 30 cents.
The amazon price is inflated to include "free shipping".

For me it was worth $8. I have prime and wanted to do it this weekend. Order Friday night and they were at my door this am.

Note, I thought it was only 1 so I ordered 2. They come as a pair.

Ricky Bobby will become famous soon enough
^This is on my weekend to do's as I have to replace the passenger door handle (black trim peeling), I have 4 clips, bushings, and screws ready to go in the regulators. Hopefully replacing the clips will keep my regulators from being stressed and working well for a few more years to come. No loud cracking from mine but a slight rattle when closing the door and the window is up.
