Broke passenger window!

[Bones]

Passenger window has all of a sudden decided to stop working!

Read this is a bit of a common problem! Renault will supposedly pay towards some of it, but not all? Thats probably with warranty intact too!

Pain in the arse, hopefully somethings just come lose!

Window regulators go on them bones wife has had 2 new 1's fitted on her cat

Did you take it to a garage to get done or do them yourself?

Rumour has it you can get to the regulators through the speaker cover?

Took it to Reno mate. Dunno bout now but when we had them fixed the part was on back order

Renault will pay a contribution towards them if your car is under 7 years old. Leaves you with ~£200 per window IIRC

When you managed to fix this yourself, was it an easy job?

Aye was dead easy!

Just took the door card off, unplugged the regulator from the motor, cleaned the pins on both bits then gave it a good tape back together to make sure they were dead firm and couldn't come slightly loose!

Awesome, cheers

Had one go on the Mrs Megane, as said it's a very common problem.

I believe Renault pay a % of the cost due to it being a known problem, so worth speaking to your local dealer.
