Noticed there were no videos on replacing the window regulator on the latest gen beetles. ($500+ job at a dealer) I hope my video helps you out and saves you a few bucks. Like and sub!
Great Tutorial, for some reason folks can't be bothered to do these videos over here in the UK, you just saved me a lot of hassle ........ many thanks indeed from London England.
Thanks man. I just did this on my wife's bug and this is the ONLY video or anything that tells you what to do. I almost lost my mind when I took the door panel off and saw all metal and couldn't even see the window. Luckily I found your video. Thank you so much!
Thank You - You walked me through the whole process. I've become a weekend wrench turner due to everything costing so much. I do have a ? --- there is no torque anywhere for tightening the window clamps ???
Hi there. I have a 2015 VW Beetle Classic. It does the same thing here in NYC. I have a quick fix for this issue, which seems to work for me, is to spray window washer fluid on the glass. Make sure the washer fluid is for cold temperatures. The solution avoids getting stuck outside of the car. The washer fluid keeps the windows from freezing, Secondly is having the car warm up with the heat on pointed to the windows. (With a remote start system installed). I think the problem is the pinch sensor for the glass windows; VW should remove that piece of tech.
Thank you for the suggestion to cut up the old regulator, which is what I had to do. My job is half done. What's haunting me is, do I have to somehow synchronize the motor to the regulator while re-installation is in progress?
Excellent video. I have the same issue and have taken it down to the motor and regulator. Wondering if you have part numbers for the regulator. I checked the motor and it is good. Our bug is also a 2015. Thanks again
Great video as I am just doing this job! I do have a problem, though. As I was putting the window back it I didn't here the click so I pushed down on the window causing it to go down about 6 inches so the alignment is now off and I can't tighten the window closest to the side view mirror. I tried using the motor to hopefully bring it all the way up but it stops exactly where I pushed it down to. Any suggestions?
Thank you very much for this tutorial… got my daughter’s regulator replaced using your guidance!

You make it seem so easy!

I replaced my 2001 vw beetle driver's side regulator and motor in 20 minutes..one of the most easiest to do
Could you maybe explain to me what tools would be required to replace the door lock actuator?
Question you know the back window at the bottom has the rubber trim could that get covered up or replaced without removing the entire glass?
