Hi,

I have had a problem for a while with my nearside rear window, the mechanism moves, but the glass stays still, unless you slide it down with your hand, this is now happening on the front nearside also, its probably my fault for trying to open them when they were iced up, the question is how do I get the glass to stick in the mechanism?

Cheers

Hi

Just read of this fault in this months Car Mechanics. I'll save you the price.

It seems the fix will envolve taking off the door card and then the door carrier to expose the door glass regulator and the drop glass. The fixings can then be reattached to the glass with epoxy resin. A spray of silicone lubricant to the channels stops the glass freezing in future.

How that works in practice, I don't know, but it would seem simple for a qualified person.

Super, looks like I will have to get a rivet tool and sort out the Windows myself, or perhaps get my friendly Skoda dealer to do it!.

Cheers
