Yes, the DIY you posted inspired me to believe that the motor in my Zs top was faulty and when i found out it was the Actuator/Hinge i was relieved; until i found out that the actuator was actually more expensive then the motor..
My Z4 is a 2004 and had done 55k kms till the failure.. How would the actuator's seals be giving away is beyond me.. I believe it is not that rare an issue anymore.. Is it possible to have the seals repaired? I will give it a try, since here in Pakistan, replacing parts is usually the last resort and there are quite a few hydraulic repair workshops here..
I do have the broken actuator but the shipping cost to US would be a killer..
@Mike, i have attached the pic with the passenger seat out to get to the actuator.. This is the best i could do since i just visited the workshop to check on the progress and wasn't present during the entire process..
