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.

hello all have not used the car in a while. last time was when it was icy in the morning, i tried to wind down the windows heard the noise but the window didnt move. ok fine its frozen. didn't think anything of it today when trying to open the car window the window stays shut and all i hear is super crunching sounds. any idea what this is? quick fix tricks? 987.1 boxster thanks
Sounds like the window regulator is broken to me. The mechanism is going up and down but the wire has snapped so it can’t take the window with it. Would be surprised if it’s anything else Expect you will need a new one fitted. I have done it myself on a boxster, not too bad.
100% it’s the regulator. Had the exact same symptoms with my 987.2, sounds like you’re crunching broken glass when pushing the window up/down switch. Had mine fixed under warranty at the time - think it was around £200-250 value repair - that’s OPC pricing so sure it would be cheaper with an indy.
Easy job for an Indy. It’s defo the regulator.
