About to back off the drive this morning when the father in law pops up next to me, push button, whirrrrr window goes down, quick chat, pull away and carry on to the station.  Park up, push button and whirrrr, crunch, click, crunch.  Bloody windows gets about 4/5 the way up and stops.....


......Argh, more bloody money to spend! Just spent £150 on a new bloody exhaust.

So any ideas what has happened to me drivers window??  Wondering if I need to replace the motor and/or the window raising doberrywhasname....

That I think will be the "Window Lift Regulator", I've seen theseregularly on Eblag, it seems to be a scissor like bit of rubbish that does something technical that I don't understand.

TimM:
Eblag seems to list a motor here for a 200TDi for £9.99 (at the moment), so you might be lucky, it may not be expensive (just a pain in the backside)

It'll be one of these, depending on the exact vehicle :

Budgie:
Before you go replacing the motor, does the window go back down again?

I only ask because I had a similar problem with my drivers window and it was the channel on the mechanisum that the glass sits in. The inside of the channel had corroded and bubbled out, catching on the inside of the door frame as the window was raised.
It was sorted by removing the rust and crimping the channel back into a normal position.

Check it by removing the door card and plastic door cover, drop he window to where you can see the bottom of the glass and, if this is the problem, then you should see the corrosion.  :wink:
