power window

[electraglide]

used my power windows the other day and heard a loud crack when the drivers window came up I thought the glass broke at first but the window wouldnt go up or down after so I figured it was the regulator I called the dealer for a price on the part planning on doing it myself as its a 2001 with 175000 klm
and they said bring it in they would cover it so it got fixed free with an upgraded kit which hopefully will last .
So if this happens to you check out the dealer first to see if they will cover it under the extended warranty on window regulators.

Interesting note. From time to time, I've had problems with my power windows, too. See to be working right now but had to have them adjust them a few times.... and I still love my car! My dealer didn't charge me either. I guessed it might be an issue with this model/year.

There's an extended warranty on the window regulators (I forget which years are covered - but definitely up to 2001). The clips that hold the window are made of plastic and very prone to breaking...the new regulator VW puts in has metal clips.
