Option 1 - window fully down; attach the screw to the screwdriver (with loctite stuff - can't remember what it's called!) gently prise the seals apart and screw the screw back in! however the screw will fall inside the door at least 10 times - there'll be lots of swearing and skint knuckles! But a little perseverance and you'll get it! Use threadlock or something to prevent it working loose again!
Option 2 -in hindsight - it's probably easiest to take the doorpanel off and the window out, rubbeseals off the frame and screw it back in!
Option 3 - least frustrating - get someone who knows
what they're doing to fix it! - ( is it still under warranty?)
I think you are meaning the screw i have already removed , the one near the wing mirror? The one I am on about, well there are two of them , they are at the bottom of the dorr panel and apparently they adjust the tilt on the window.You can excess them by simply opening the door, no need to remove panels. I have unscrewed the one closest to the front of car too far and it came loose ,cant see how the runner attatches back to window
Renmure , I think the original problem is actually quite common, noticed alot of threads at elisetalk.co on the issue but none about whats happened now with mine
The easy solution appears to be to tighten the first screw I was first on about near the wing mirror , this would only take few mins , although mines was threaded so i just removed . i think it holds one of the rubber seals against the window but didnt look that important .
