window problem

[tundraathome]

i have a 97 passat that recently developed a strange problem. the driver,s window goes down fine but will only go up to about 1 inch from the top, then i hear a clicking noise that only stops when i hit the down button for a second. i currently leave it up with come duct tape covering the gap but with summer coming it would be nice to put it down. any ideas etc. are much appreciated.. sam

Sounds like you have some teeth broken off on the gear on the window regulator. Not sure however, you need to remove your door panel and check it out.

Does the window look like it's crooked or anything, maybe one of the tracks came loose instead causing the window to get wedged to where it will no longer go up, not sure.

does not appear to be crooked but you are right i will have to pull it apart to check it out

where can i get cheap power window motors? Because i already took them apart and tried to fix them but the metal wires get loose and get stuck

when i turn on my headlights my turn signals dont turn on unless i turn off my headlights.
