Passanger Front elec Window stuffed

The Passanger Front elec Window is stuffed

The motor works etc, but then I took the door card off the cable on the runner is totally mangled and one end of the cable has snapped off.

Great! lucky for me the window is stuck closed.

Looking on Autodoc they appear to have heavy discount on the new replacement

stark £33.65
Ridex £62.57

I think I'll go for the more expesive one,as the other sounds way too cheap to be any good.

Why do people use that rubbish?
Do yourself a favour and buy once, from reputable supplier or at least make 100% sure it's what you need, ignore their "expertise"

Re: Passanger Front elec Window stuffed

IMHO that autodoc is "chinese style" trade set-up, as it comes to car parts, nothing hardly is going to fit. Their parts fiche is so bad, it's waste of time.
I'd need VIN or reg at least, but for the money quoted for a window motor - I bet I'd find suitable well and long lasting alternative, if not original replacement

Re: Passanger Front elec Window stuffed

I can only speak from my experience, but I use AutoDoc for a few of my cars over the years and not had a problem with fitment or anything.

Quite a few times it has been the only source I can find parts for the polo.

Luck of the draw I guess
