Drivers door window motor removal guidance please

Featured Replies

I have been living with the common drivers door window motor/control box problems but want to fix them by replacing the motor and the unit attached to it.

I have stripped down the door so that I can see the motor but its partially hidden by metalwork so how do I get to it from here?

I can find posts on getting to the motor and examining the connector but I can't find any on how to remove the motor unit once you have got to it.

The only post I found showed a video of a LHD VW window which was no help.

Vehicle is a 2003 Elegance estate.

Thanks for reading this.

I'd imagine u get window to certain level and remove the 2 screws holding the glass! Then slide the glass out the top at an angle, once don't that bring window mech down to bottom and disconnect it, once u done that undo the screws holding in mech! Shuld be 4 I think 2 on ech side!! Once done that u can move it around but be carefull off other wires going to other things, bring it to bottom and try bring it out the big space in door,try moving it out one bit at time then remove motor, once out refit new in reverse order, hope this helps
