window issues ????

[A4Triple Blk]

the other day after the first nice day of summer in ny i rolled all my windows down the whole day and at night wen i go to roll them up it sounds like a rock is in the window scratching it as it comes up ... but nothing happens to the window and then i rolled it down again (stupid) and it barely came up ... any suggestions guys ?

Sounds like a window regulator. Both of my fronts went too.

i had samething happend to me. dont worry easy fix, maybe an hour at most. by the way you explained it sounds like your cable is just out of place. Take your door apart and you should see what exactly happend check DIY section on that. if still need more help i got pics and i think diy somewhere

Yeah A4Triple ever since I got mine 3 months ago my driver window makes that squeal when going up and down, not too annoying but I hate when things don't work like they should. Guess i'll look into a new window regulator.

Window problem here also. My rear passenger windows roll fine up and down when i control them from the driver console, but when passengers in the back try to rolled them up or down they wont work what could it be???

def the regulator both of mine already went

[sadpandas]

after i roll either of my front 2 windows up sometimes they roll back down again. it RULES. Ill sit there and roll it up again and watch it roll down to the original position pre roll up. anyone?

There is button on your door that prevents passangers to open/close windows, did you check it?

yeah, i feel sorry for you, i forgat what it is but deals with motor(i think actuator going back)

im in the same boat. left rear sometimes make that scratchy noise going down, but seems to work fine everytime. hmm

thanx alot guys i appreciate the help and i'll let u know how it goes

Guys I dontt think its the regular as much as its the little plastic clip that keeps the wire in place.

If you press the window button and you hear something spinning, then I think that means the motor/regulator is fine.

Here's the DIY:

I got to do it to my rear passenger window too -- it'll roll down w/o a problem, but cant roll back up properly.

Ha, I have the exact same problem. And I thought I just didn't know how to work the window locks.

I also have this problem, but I never thought of it as ruling. Maybe I'll try to have a more positive outlook next time something does the EXACT OPPOSITE of what I want it to do haha. Or I could quit whining and take it to the dealer, have it fixed under CPO warranty. Whichever.

Nope, not lost, just continued with it. I actually loled when I read that "it ruled" because I was flipping out about it right before I came into my house and hopped on the forums haha.

So my windows make a screaming noise when i roll them down, but only when it is hot outside.. i know it sounds weird but on a cool night they make no noise going down.. and on the way up is completely different.. no noise

How do you fix this?

Actually, I may have figured mine out. When I just got them tinted, the tint guy said whoever (the dealership) removed the previous tint left glue all over them. He said it got stuck up in the top, so when the windows rolled up it thought it was hitting something and automatically rolled itself down.

Also, the reason why neither of my rear windows will roll down is because the spring under the child safety lock button pushes up so hard that even when it's in the "off" position it thinks it is "on".
