Update

Well i went ahead and bought the regulator / motor installed in and nothing works still. Seems like no power going to the window. I am so confused since i check the fuse ad people are saying there is no relay for the windows. My passenger window is working fine. Anyone have an idea what it could be? I checked the plug in the box under the seat it seems to b plugged in . There is only one plug i can feel . Please help me out alittle.

I have a similar problem. However, my door window operated normally when opening the door. It just doesn't lower the window quite enough to clear the top frame when I go to close it. It lowers a bit, but not enough to clear. It bangs into the top frame every time I close the door with the window up. Is this the same issue as everyone else?

oversteerdawg: You are describing classic regulator wear. It either stops dropping that 1/4 inch, drops at the front or the back but not both, won't raise after it drops, or the window just won't go all the way up or all the way down.

If you haven't gotten this problem solved yet, it could be the window switch in the center console. They do wear out eventually.

Window Dip

I had the same problem (2002-base) but have an extended warranty through Momentum Porsche here in Houston- they replaced the door switch and also the regulator. Solved the problem.
