Hey, I have a convertable 6th gen and the driver's side back window stopped going up. Not the one in the door, the one behind the door coming off the quarter panel. I was hoping to buy the new motor and track used, but I was looking at a hatchback celi today and it looked like the back windows don't move. In peeking down at the dash, I saw the controls for the rear window were not there. Do any other 6th gen's besides the convertables have power windows in back?

I have a convertible too, an im havin a somewhat same problem. I guess my window isgetting of track, i hear it click, when its going up, and does not flush correctly with the door window, leaving a gap between. I wanted to see about taking it appart.
![]() My best guess mine could be damaged or simply dirty. After 10 years of dust, grease, grinded metal. I think its worhtwhile taking it out, clean it with gasoline, get old grease out, and regrease it. I know its a lot of work but it should definitely prolong the life of the little motor. I think these motors have a protection. If the sensors think the motor stop, or has something stopping it it wont keep feeding electricity to the motor. ![]() The only setback of taking the window out, is you have to know how to properly adjust it after putting it back in. I am planning on taking pictures on ho the pins on the pannel are, and measure the gap between window, metal before simply going in and taking it out. Plann it carefully. I dont have time this weekend, but maybe next. ![]() I am planning on doing this on all four windows, its cheaper thant replacing all of them. Plus i will be bonding with my car!!! ![]() ![]() -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years... I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL
