messed up window help!

shure12 · 07-18-2007, 08:57 PM

hey i own a 1999 a6 w/ the 2.8 nothing special for a motor... anyways the passanger window is messed up it rolls down perfect but when you go to put it up, it will go about 1/2 the way up and stop then come back down on its own... you can get it up by playin with the switch alot or grabbing it with your hand and pulling it up. this really sucks, it makes my car look like a peice of **** and not to mention really annoying. i have heard that there is a clip inside that is known to break.. how do i go about fixing this anyone have any links on how to? or has anyone delt with this problem??
thanks

Hi You'll be needing a new window regulator to fix this.

You might want to take a close look at the rear window clip. It's made of plastic and the regulator cable can become loose. I've replaced mine with a little help from my Bentley's sevice manual. Try searching this site for more info. You can also Google the problem. There's a lot of info out there for free.
