Total bill for window repair, minor service _and_ brake fluid change was less than the OPC wanted for the window repair alone.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Drivers side window has just stopped going up and down on the motor. I heard a crack sound when I attempted to lower it this afternoon. Now, I just hear what seems like slight glass crunching sound (ouch) when I select up or down on the switch. However,, the window itself can be raised or lowered by pushing on it manually - it sounds as though some gears are moving when I do that and it moves up and down smoothly. Has anyone else had this issue before? I'm guessing that whatever connects the glass to the winder mechanism has broken and is not a trivial DIY fix. Thanks...

POST 2 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Cheers - that sounds exactly like it. Will phone around for some quotes.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

OPC wanted £502-52 and couldn't fit it in until 12th May! So, it's gone off to an indi...

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

They certainly were..... a big thumbs up for Autostrasse, my nearest Porsche indi... They managed to do both the window regulator and do its minor service yesterday. And I picked the car up this morning. Total bill for window repair, minor service _and_ brake fluid change was less than the OPC wanted for the window repair alone. Know where I'll be going in future ;-)
