After some help with drivers window

[h18pdw]

Window stopped working.

I have taken apart and motor is fine but there is a cable at the bottom of the motor that has come loose with spring attached. Inside this cable is a wire cable it is not connected anymore and the end has gone inside black outer cable.

Can someone tell me what my next plan of action is on this issue.

If someone on here that can help I have pics which I can send across via email or via any social media site to see the issue.

Thank you in advance.

New member - did you fix this?

Happened to both my front windows, the cables corrode through at the bottom unfortunately.

I bought an Audi kit for the first one for about £130.

You remove door card (2 self tappers) and the complete window frame - honest!

Fitting the cable kit is fiddly but quite do-able, preferably over a couple of days and in a covered area or garage.

Second one was much easier of course, bought a cheap kit off eBay for around £30, quite serviceable, if even fiddlier to fit.

Grease everything possible, this seems not to be done at factory.

You need 4 additional large allen screws (forgotten size) which do not come with the kit.

You can probably get the size from a parts fische.

Cheers,
