Have had my A6 Avant 2.7tdi SLine for 14 months, awesome car. But have been issues with my window switch, not closing the front passenger side window at all.

Went down to Bradford Audi + picked up a switch for £45........reasonable

Found the following vid on how to remove door card
Removing the door skin on Audi A6 (C6 4F) - YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjlkiTANDYQ)

Once you get the card off, took 15 mins, push the plastic clips away that hold in the window switch. Took the switch out & it fell apart......after I noted the 'manufactured in Italy' on the replacment I realised this was gonna happen.......just a question of when & not if.

Anyway I've attached a few pics for anybody who's interested, at least all is working 100% again now.......but shocking build quality I'm sure all will agree.

It could have been worse fabrique en France for instance :)

You'll be surprised very little parts are actually made by VW themselves.
