Passat (B5) :: Window Takes Some Time To Roll Down
May 15, 2008
No codes, no obvious troubles other than, when I use the power window control on my 99 passat to control the driver side rear window, I have to hold the button down sometimes for 1 second, sometimes for 15 seconds before it actually moves. If I try to operate the window from the actual button on that door( the rear door), it works fine with no hesitation or sticking. No, the safety lock is not on. I am guessing it is something electronic but as there are no burnt fuses or damaged wires, I am left confused.

I've got a 2013 Corolla S with an upgraded sound system. Well when the vehicle is running and its in park or stopped and I turn the wheel, the headlights dim. My headlights also dim if I roll up more than one window at a time. I've been slowly trying to narrow down the issue but with no such luck. I have a 1600 watt amplifier and two, 800 peak watt subwoofers.

The one thing I haven't been able to figure out is how to get the automatic window roll down with the FOB with the Vag commander software. I've done some cool stuff with the cable so far but this is the only thing I cant figure out.
The cable is not compatible with the Rostech software that handles the b6 and no I don't want to buy a rosstech cable.

I have replaced the passenger side motor and regulator for the window (at the dealer) on my B6 Wagon. Now the windows doesn't roll all the way down. You can still see about 1" of glass when is all the way down. I called the dealer and VW of American and they said these are the upgrades parts and that is why does not roll all the way down. They said that there is nothing else they can do

I have been having problems with my drivers side power window on my 06 Ford F-150. At first, it would roll down, but wouldn't roll back up, so I replaced the switch. After replacing the entire power window control switch, if you push the switch for the drivers window down, it will start to go down, then stop, and you have to press it about 20 times to get it all the way down. You can definitely hear the switch clicking off. All the other windows work perfect. I took it to get the oil changed and asked about it, and they said to change out the regulator, which I did, but the same thing happens. I checked the fuse and that was fine. Is there a relay or something I should check?

All of a sudden my rear window on the passenger side does not roll down. I can hear the motor running but it won't go down. What could possibly be the problem? Is it something that is very expensive to fix? Could it be a fuse?

it wont roll up and down but i can pull it up and push it down, however the motor still works but it sounds like sand in the door. is my motor shot or just the regulator, or is it just broke clips?

My friends passat's window will only roll up 90%. it leaves a one inch gap open. I have searched but can't seem to find this particular problem. most of the search results were for windows that would not move up or down at all.
Is this a simple adjustment by holding the buttons down and then up method? or is it a mechanical adjustment like the window sliding down in the carrier? or worse yet, does it sound like the failed clips or a regulator?

Just wanted to note a squeaky driver side window on roll down and a lagging defrost on the windshield.
2012 Passat TDI SE 4k miles.
Other than that really like the car so far.
They say they are ordering a new window guide or something to fix it.

I have a 2006 F-150 5.4L Extended Cab. The windows have to be rolled up by hand and would like to know if there is a way to converted to power window and maybe locks too.

I have an 02 Passat with a passenger side window motor problem. The window works fine from the drivers side and will go up using the pass. side switch, but it will not go down. It makes a clicking noise each time I press the switch and the window sort of acts like it wants to move down. I took the door panel off and checked the switch and the wires going to the motor and every thing looked ok. I checked the switch with a multimeter and it appears to be ok. What else I can check?

I have a 1996 buick lesabre and the windows on the driver side will not roll down. Front and back. When I push the front window button it clicks but nothing more and when I push the rear window switch nothing happens. I use this car to deliverer mail and it gets really hot inside.

I've been having the strangest problem in the morning of the first start up of my car. For some reason i hit the window button to roll the windows down and they don't go down I wait 10 sec. And hit it again and they come down.

Sometimes I forgot to up my window before I turn off the engine. I cannot up my window being in accessory mode neither. Any way to go around this?
It allows only around 20 seconds after power down to up the window, not after that.

I did some vag-com tweaks I noticed that my passenger seat window would role up and down but I have to keep holding the button. The full click down or up no longer works. My driver window works fine, what I have done wrong?

My passenger side window won't roll down. Everything else on the door works including the mirror. Guessing the motor, is there a way to check it?

So for some reason today, my passenger (front) window decided that it doesn't want to stay shut when I auto roll it from both the driver and passenger side switches. It will go all the way up, and then roll back down approximately 2-3 inches like it is doing a pinch protection. If it is rolled all the way up manually it stays up. I have visually checked the track and don't see any obstructions, which I didn't expect to find since it will stay up when done manually. Is there something I'm missing or an easy fix?

How to get the door panel off of a 2011 Jeep Compass without breaking anything? I'm scared to death to go prying on the thing because I can imagine everything inside falling out on the ground. I'm pretty sure I've removed all the little panels and bolts. The reason I'm doing this is because my power window won't roll up and I'm guessing it's the motor.

Recently had a driver's side window replaced in my 99 GMC Sierra. Also had the regulator and a door handle replaced as they were broken as well, but I knew this going in. Was informed I needed a new master switch and had them order/install.
Today I turned the key on and the window began rolling down on it's own. I hit the switch to stop it, which it did, but only as long as I held the switch down. Now the window is all the way down and will not roll back up. Passenger side window works fine from either switch. Door locks work as well for whatever that's worth.

As previously reported, I'm happy overall with my new 04, but one of the squawks I want to have looked at is the passenger window. The window stops it's upward travel about 1/16 of an inch from the top. If left there, I get a significant wind whistle. I can manually move it the last little bit, which I did (and now forbid anyone using that window until it is looked at). My major concerns are a "clattering" noise coming from the inside of the door when the window goes up or down. I'm wondering if this sound is a symptom of the controller going bad, or if I'm missing some sort of retraining for the window.

I bought the 2 door 2012 Golf 3 weeks ago and I noticed that whenever I roll the passenger window up or down, there is a high pitched squeal somewhere, I think out of the speakers. It's kind of annoying. If I knew the problem, I could just add a low pass filter, but I don't want to really go that route.
