it's the little white wheel connected to the arm of the regulator.

it is going to break soon.

Regulator. Mine has done this at the top for the past 60K miles. When it breaks, I'll fix it.

This does not appear to be the failure mode that folks fix with the little plastic rollers as mine are intact, yet it still makes a ratcheting noise at the top of its travel.

I've got the same prob (85k km) right now
is that hard to fix with the regulator (ie with regular tools?) or worth letting my dealer take care of it?

This is an easy fix with a new regulator arm. There is one bolt that has a star-shaped head but I just wedged a flat head in there and worked just fine.
There is a thread on here somewhere where someone substituted the plastic roller for something else and it worked.
Typical LR making you replace the whole arm for a 2 cent platic roller.

Actually it is in the Tech Section under "Window Regulator"

Better fix it quick. I had a 97 that when the regulator broke it yanked the window regulator out of the housing.
