How to Repair an Audi A4 Window


1. Open up the door which contains the damaged window. Find the screws which hold the door panel onto the door. Use a Phillips head screwdriver to remove the screws. Place them in a safe area, as you will need to reattach them when you reconnect the door panel. Remove the screws from the door handle and pull it away from the door.
2. Reach into the hole left by the removed door handle and disconnect the linkage arm which holds the door handle assembly in place.
3. Use a wrench to remove the bolts fixed to the backing plate. Lift the backing plate off to gain access to the window regulator.
4. Remove the bolts which fix the window to the regulator using a hex wrench. Lift the window out of the door frame. Take care not to cut your hands or damage your door frame as you remove it.
5. Insert a new window into the door frame. Fix the window securely in place and reattach the door assembly by following the removal steps in reverse.
