Window Position Adjustment When Door is Opened and Closed

[pringletl]

I have a 2003 Carrera 4S, manual with 68000 miles. The mechanism that lowers the window slightly when the door is opened and then raises to seal when the door is closed seems to be out of sync. The window lowers slighty when the door is opened, but immediated raises before the door is closed. I have to manually lower the window, close the door, than manually raise the window in order to close the door.

Any clues on correcting this issue?

The error is in the door lock, microswitch defective. Use the search button on top of the page and you will find lots of info about this problem.

I had the same problem and had to replace my lock mechanism. I think the part you're looking for is one of these:

8N1 837 015 C door lock /L

3B1 837 016 P door lock /R

Thanks for the feedback, that was the problem.
