Hey guys

The passenger side window is broken today, it cannot be up or down and when you close the door the auto-up is gone. I can actually hear a click sound came inside the door when I was pressing the button (That means the circuit still work?)... Anyone have this before? Problem with the motor? How much to fix it.... My car is 2003 coupe and now i am soooo pissed.. :banana::D:):ermm::ermm:

Is the car still under warranty? If so, take it back to your dealer and they should fix it for free as it is mechanical, not electrical.

Good luck.

Common problem. Mine is having it as well, on the driver's side. Yet to get to fixed.

If your window is stuck and you just want get it to shut temporarily, try this: hold your window switch UP, then bum the door from the inside. It should go up. If it still doesn't, just apply more force.

Thanks a lot mate, but the warranty is nothing, only if your engine blow up...

If you've got any electrical/audio/suspension etc issues, check that thread before posting, it's quite helpful :D

With our Aussie dollar being this good, it's only natural to take advantage of sourcing parts from the US.

Have a look at this - http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/GENUINE-NIS...sQ5fAccessories

$AU173 + $AU27 for shipping. $AU200 looks like a good deal to me :D

Ok. I just asked because when I bought mine, I took extra options on warranty such as windows issue.

Good luck anyway.

Surprise!! The window is back today! I didn't touch anything and it just work again...I can just assume the program screwed up...

HOWEVER, at the same time, the door lock lost its function.. When I use the remote control to lock and quickly unlock, the passenger side door was still lock but the drive side just fine. Same thing happened if you unlock the door and quickly lock again, the passenger side door coundn't lock by itself.. BUT, if you wait, for half an hour or longer then you press unlock (or lock), it work again! What the Hell is this.. :P;):P

That's abit odd.

My suggestion is just have a check next time you service your car...because you don't want to be stuck at some random place and can't wind up the windows or lock the doors.

You're better off spending the extra $$$ and replacing the door-lock solenoids and the window motors/regulators. As Victor said, you don't want to be in a random place with windows down and doors which don't lock :devil: . I wouldn't ignore these issues if I were U.

True.. This is just so creepy the car is playing me..haha.

I am more worry about the window issue cause I can always lock the door manually. :(

Anyway, this is all about $$$.. My wallet goes flat :devil:

Your wallet goes flat...but you get to have a sexy car! :(

given you are experiencing these issues NOW I would strongly suggest instead of talking about it on a forum - FIX IT! when the windows die on these cars they do it WITHOUT WARNING! if that is down then you are really screwed.

all the chatter about resetting them and programs going wrong - totally off target.

these are known mechanical issues on these cars (up to 2006.11) and they should be fixed the first sign of trouble.

if you are having full door issues then I would do ALL 4 items. that way you have a known constant (yes it will kill your wallet.) and piece of mind that it is all new gear (forget sourcing second hand = hand grenade.) and it will last another 5-6 years.

in the past day I have been asked to supply 4 door actutators from 4 different people. I think that says something.

if you want very little hassle from a car and more fun you prbably should have bought a nissan instead of a renault :devil:

( I can say that - I own a R32.)

Thanks for that! Should get it fix..

This is a good car, love to drive it. but since i have bought the car, she actually gives me some headaches, such as, window, door, wasting tank leaking, fuel damper fail, break vibration...etc. I get some of them fixed but new problems keep coming up. What can I say? --- I still love it, as long as I still have $$$ in my wallet...

    • The incentives are mostly the same, yes. Ethanol is cheap compared to the cost of doing 98-100 RON with crude oil alone. 87 to 93-94 AKI all with E10. In 2020 Canada mandated E10 as a part of their "renewable fuel standard" and is supposedly going to go to E15 in 2030. In California where there are only 8 refineries with two threatening to shut down next year it's been over 20 years now of E10 and 91 AKI maximum because there's just not enough refinery capacity or crude oil supply relative to the demand for premium unleaded fuel. And CARB's low carbon fuel standard means functionally none of the diesel available at the pump is made from crude oil anymore. It's almost all entirely 20% biodiesel blended with 80% renewable diesel (hydrotreated vegetable oil) now. The number of gasoline vehicles that support E15 or higher ethanol concentrations is surprisingly low, I can't imagine it being wise to play tricks like this without flex fuel sensors in most of the fleet.

    • South Australia, which is hardly as far behind as the rest pf Oz makes out, and who is also not a paragon of progressiveness (read that as over-legislation) in the area of vehicle standards, has this to say on the subject: Adjustable coil-over suspension Aftermarket adjustable coil-over suspension components are suspension units that incorporate an external thread on the main body and corresponding threaded spring saddle that allows the vehicle's suspension height to be varied. If fitting aftermarket or coil-over suspension components you must submit an Application to modify a light motor vehicle form and a report from a light vehicle engineering signatory (LVES).
    • Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers
    • Those above shitboxes, mediocre and above usually have a turbo strapped to them, hence the slightly higher octane is required.
