Title: Mk7 passenger window
Post by: agentutah on 21 December 2016, 12:13

Anyone else Mk7 passenger window like this when button pressed to fully open ??  window seems to stop short ?

Driver side window fully opens with no window visible once opened

There was a thread on this not long ago im sure i read, i think the op took it back to vw to rectify.
Someone may be along to correct me but the problem rings a bell

Just checked mine just now ( a 64 plate GTD) and it goes down so that you can just see the top of the glass. Definitely a bit further than yours in the picture. Sorry I'm a bit computer illiterate or I would post a picture.
Merry Christmas to all you GTD owners and thanks for sharing all your information during the year it has been invaluable in a lot of situations

@Lemski @ dfsGTD
Many Thanks for the reply.
I also emailed the dealer where the car came from and they just emailed me  back saying the following....

-------------------------------
The windows are not supposed to fully go down.

The remaining glass on the front should be approx. 2 cm , rear should be approx. 4cm of glass left.
-------------------------------------------------

So I went straight back and said the driver window goes all the way down but not the passenger!!! not both windows stop short

Think I will drop it into VW southend to see if what they say. 
Not a major issue but clearly it is not right

Had the same thing happening with my passenger window.Thought it was a bit odd.
Went in for it's first service and meant to mention it but forgot.Got it back and lo and behold- the window now goes down fully!. :smiley:
