My 1996 B4 Passat TDI 1.9l has a power window problem. The driver side goes up but will not close completely. It makes a clicking sound and jumps at the same rate when it nears the up closed position.
Opening the window works well. It goes down to the limit and turns off the window motor.
I removed the regulator/motor assembly from the door and looked it over. Upon removal of the Concentric washer, I noticed that the black rubber washer/bushing for the washer was bunched up and did not fit well on one part of the washer. Could this be what is causing the problem, rather than a faulty motor or motor control unit? :confused: Or could it be that the window mechanical assembly (can't remember the specific name for it..anyway it is the part that is attached to the motor and window) is faulty?
I found out the hard way that Brose and Siemens motors do not have interchangeable parts. I returned a Brose motor to the Breaker yard yesterday. The manual does not state which position the concentric washer has to be placed in when installing another motor. Does anyone happen to have that pearl of information?
