The reason for the zip tie on the regulator is because the PCA Porsche club recommended it as a solution to the problem of the regulator not dropping the few millimeters. They proposed that the problem was caused by cable slack. It is a free possible fix so i tried it. It did not work for me so now ill install the URO regulator. Thanks for this great instruction.
You just have to make sure that you are releasing the lock all the way. If the plastic piece is not coming out then the lock is not being completely released. Kurt
Kelley, So far I have not had any problems with them. It is important though that you clean the window guide channels and also correctly adjust the window to ensure a trouble free operation. thanks Kurt
Thanks for getting back with me. I just installed the URO window regulator about 3 weeks ago on my 986. I've had bad luck with 2 china window regulators. What I know now I would have bought the OEM window regulator for 265 dollars and been done with it. So much of the after market parts today is just complete trash. Hopefully this URO part will last awhile . Just go with OEM parts.
It's a pleasure to watch someone who knows the job. Thank you sir
Your Welcome and thank you

A zip tie will never repair a worn regulator. If there is excessive slack in the cable then the part is just worn out.

Thanks for the regulator stopper tip, that detail saved my project.

Great video! But how do you remove the door handle cable ?? The little white plastic holder at the end of the cable is stuck !

How do like the URO window regulator? I bought one for the driver's side but have not installed it. Please let me know. I would really appreciate.

thanks Kurt
Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.
Just had to take out a URO regulator … unknown how long it was installed but looked fairly new
The slots for the cable closest to the motor came apart

How do you program the window if the distance is off when opening and closing?
The body module controls the amount of drop. However if the window is adjusted to high the window will not drop enough to clear the seals.

My windows can roll down by the button but it doesn’t roll down when i open the door
Then the micro switch on the door is most likely bad.
