Power Window regulator slipping

["Colin Barfoot" <Colin_Barfoot@email.msn.com>]

Qlist,

On my 1989 200 quattro.
The drivers side front power window regulator is slipping such that the
motor turns a while before the window starts to go down/up and finishes
about 4 inches above the sill and on the up direction it finishes about 1/2
inch below closed.  I can move the window down/up to complete the
open/closing action but this doesn't produce a seal when closed (and raises
security issues as well!).

questions:
1.  What is te correct sequenceforremovingthe door panel on this car?
(I have the Bentley for the 85-88 5000 series- is there a similar reference
that I can use.)

2. Can I take apart the regulator and replace a clip or cable fastener
somewhere? I have a regulator withabad motor from the rear window (passenger
side ? I forget) could I use the mechanism - or parts of it with the
existing working motor somehow?


Thanks in advance for your assistance.
