Best video Ive seen on this procedure. Shows that it is not necessary to remove inner panel. If you don't want to unbolt the crossmember then you do need to remove inner panel as you will still have motor attached and will not have enough clearance to access it to disconnect it. I would like to have seen how easy/fiddly it is to reconnect the cable to door handle.

Hi Bill thanks for watching and for compliments. As you saw we did both sides and on the second one realized that you could just remove the outer skin. Think we were a bit concerned about taking the crossmember off and getting well and truly confused about how it might all go back together. As far as I remember reconnecting the cable to the door handle was easy enough (except we forgot to put the small locating screw back). Some long-nose pliers may have been used. Don't think it was a big deal anyway. Cheers b33zo

I think that in your list of tools you might have missed an M8 XZN (triple square) spline bit but then again maybe not on your door.

atilondon thanks for watching. Surprisingly this was really just a job of unscrewing nuts and bolts and putting it all back together again. Far less complicated than I anticipated - on a VW anyway! ATB b33zo

You are the only person I saw, NOT remove the inside door panel! My mechanic hadn't done my model before, so I had told him that you had to remove the inner panel...oops!

Hi Rachel Thanks for watching. Amanda did both sides. The first side we removed the inside door panel but it didn't really help that much so when we did the other side we discovered that yes, you can replace the winding regulator from just the outside! That's the learning part of DIY! b33zo

My driver's side window now has a new giggle, when fully up it presses against the what you call it , ceiling of the door frame and makes an unhealthy audible click When fully down you can see a bit of it is still visible to the naked eye, above the rubber boot, and you can actually put your hand on it, gently press, and it will go down another few millimeters. How can this be fixed ? Only by replacing the window regulator ?

Thanks for watching Juppie. Sounds like the cable is not winding on the spool wheel properly. Recommend take the outside door skin off and if cable tangled, frayed, pop over to nearest GFS or EuroCarParts branch for new regulator kit. Cheers b33zo

Thanks for watching Zach. My guess is that VW will be using some parts on lots of models around 2006 - 2009. Good luck, b33zo

So you can do this without removing the inside panel??

Goddahx thanks for watching. Yes it would seem that changing the winding regulator can be done by just removing the outside panel. It was a learning curve and after doing the first panel we discovered this was the case. Its not a difficult job. b33zo
