I have just bought a 2001 TD4 with 141K on the clock. I know it has some issues so hopefully i will be able to work through them with the help of people on here. I have only had the car for 1 hr checked all the windows etc all worked fine, i dropped the bloke off that i bought the car from and now the front drivers side window won't come up. Tyipical. If i press the button it moves a couple of mm in either direction. I have tried to lift the window and press the button but it wont move. From reading on here it sound like the mechanism? Is there a way to get the window up manually?
 
As you will have probable worked out it will the cables, I know you have tried to pull it up and work the switch, If you get a good hold of window either side with some one else working switch some times it works, if not then door card off and its a bit of fiddling. I have done a couple of cable repair kits and have not had a issue with them.
If you decide to go down the kit route and you need a lift then give me a shout as only down the road in Earby.
 
thanks for the reply, and the offer to help fit. You are right i have tried liftting the window but no luck. If i take the card off can i lift the window so it is at least closed, until i can get a kit off ebay. Then i will take your kind offer.
Cheers. I am just off skipton old Road so not to far from Earby:)
 
Yes but you will need ideally remove the regulator and wedge the window shut or cut the cables but first option better, will look and see if I can find the best site for you and pm you.
