Hey fellas and to Chris R.

I need help with my car issue hoping you guys can give me a bright answer.

Anyway, if you notice with our windows, when you open the door, the window slightly moves down abit (about 1 cm) and when you shut the door it goes back up. (just like eauropean cars.)

I got my car back from an importer for a bumper respray and somehow my window is fuxxed. So when I open the door (passenger side) I noticed the window has gone down to about 2 cm's and when i shut the door, the window does not go up! So if you can imagine…the window get lower and lower every time I open the door and I just need to manually controll it or shut it.

Do you guys think that this has got to do with the window motor or the Body Control Motor/Unit? or more likely the wiring?

Thanks in advance.

Hey Ogz,

Strange for it to happen after some paint work but the window motor's in these do go....have you tried anything to fix? the window up and down on door open/close works in with the door switch, it wasnt disconnected for paint work was it, or not properly re-fitted? Have you put it all the way up, disconnected the battery then reconnected to see if it will reset? Just a few ideas, otherwise could be the motor, dont know too much in this area. Good luck.

Thanks for the input Sky, yeh we have tried resetting the window and no success on that, tho im not 100% sure about the success rate on disconnecting and connecting the battery for a reset?..hmm .. I brought it to an electrician, but I wasn’t very satisfied with his suggestions. I went and saw this guy twice and during that time he tells me 2 different stories.. So I thought to consult chris virtually and fellow V35 owners for some bright inputs.

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
