my beloved 05 is now getting long in the tooth and seems to be falling apart around me. Maintenance is more than ever after clocking 170 thou k's. The other day I winded up the drivers window and when it reached the top it made a loud whack sound that frightened the b-jesus out of us. I thought the glass had smashed but not so. It's a intermittent thing that seems to come from the top of the frame/window. Any-one experienced the same or have an idea? Cheers!

Check the seal things around the top haven't come loose and are getting crushed and popping out? Wouldn't think it would be too loud but who knows.

Pretty common for the window reg to skip a tooth on the winding wheel (not sure what its called technically)

You can get an aftermarket power reg pretty easily
