Hi new to this page, I've tried searching round but can't find any page with the same problem. I have a 2008 Audi A3 8P, When I put the window up on the driver side it will go all the way up and then stop because the glass has reached the top but the switch continues to make a clicking noise until i press the button for it to go down lightly. Has anyone fixed this issue before and what was the solution? I'm not sure how the regulator works

Hi all, As above, I am looking for a motor and window regulator for a 2004 A3, Drivers side, for a 3 door. Please pop a reply or PM :) Thanks, Jordan

Hi guys, Newbie post so please bare with me in case I miss anything.. :) I have a 2004 (54) A3 2.0 BKD. The other day I went to put the drivers window UP and I heard a horrible snapping noise, after taking the door apart I could see that one of the cables going into the mechanism driven by the motor had snapped and as a consequence, the cabling around the mechanism (driven by the motor) was twisted etc. Now, they annoying part... I got a brand new window regulator from Euro (at the cost of £55 @ trade price) and proceeded to fit the item after taking the door apart AGAIN, making sure the part was fitted exactly how the original was! Put it all back together again, moved the window up and then down and BOOM..Snpapped again, at the exact same point. Has anyone ever heard of a similar issue? The motor seems fine as far as I can tell (having plugged the window switches in and tested it; the motor spins freely but does not stop unless you let your finger off the button - I presume the motor hits the resistance and stops when the window is fully down/up) Just want to get an idea of what I am up against here before shelling out any more money (for it to just do the same thing). PS: The window does slide up and down in the runners but is a little tough (I have to use both hands either side of the glass). I have attached a few photos that I have. The yellow coated regulator wires are part of the new regulator, the old one is pictured on the floor) Thanks in advance :)
