Re: Window Rollers OEM or Aftermarket?

Don't like the green rollers that much and seems to have more break of the after market ones than genuine. Probably a harder more brittle plastic used.
Another nasty surprised also is that the green rollers can rotate in the track and when all the stars are lined up, the regulator arm hits the clip and pushes it out of the roller and it disengage.
I have been using the newer Volvo ones (3509416) for awhile which are square instead of round so the plastic piece and clip always stay in one direction removing the possibility for the arm to push out the clip.
Also remember to set the end position stop since they are not set properly from factory allowing the motor to push the window too hard up into the channel and putting unnecessary strain on the plastic guides.
And also glue the lower back guide seal back in place. I usually put a thick bead of silicone all the way from top to bottom in the track and then squish the seal into it and roll down the window to put pressure on it until it's cured.
