Before going off to buy parts, I would dissect it. I'll wager your biggest problem is in the mechanism that pops the back of the door up, combined with crusty lubrication. The crunchy noise could either be a failing drive gear or perhaps a clutch skipping. Stiff operation would lead to both.There are shops that can reproduce most cables, like for parking brakes; especially if you have an original they can take the ends off of. Bill in Oregon
I was very surprised to learn that the motor is in the trunk, but when you think about it, it makes good sense. It would be quieter and it would not require a lowered ceiling to make space. I have worked on Saabs ans Volkswagens over the years and everything is close by (no long cable), but they require a lot of space, which then kills headroom.
Reasonably priced grease, but it looks suspiciously like good old petroleum jelly, which I have used on a lot of things. One was as a lube for scale model slot cars.
