You are my Hero! It was exactly as you had demonstrated! Took longer to drive to the dealer for the parts than the repair took.
By the way the dealer wanted $250.00 for the fix ($12.00 parts)
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you

Any VW Audi specialist should be able to supply. Web, or local dealership.

its pretty similar – all the window connection tabs are the same; the difference would be minor configuration differences in taking the window out.

hi great video,
but can u change the clip without taking the window out? ive heard that u can but no one really tells u how.

it would be very difficult since the clip has to be inserted into the track behind the window. You’d have to figure a way to “bend” the window out. since the whole procedure can be done in less than an hour, i wouldn’t think it would be worth an alternate procedure.

Great Video. I followed it and fixed the same problem on my 98 A6 Quatro. I purchased the parts for $6.66 each at my local dealer. They were in stock.

The part number is 4B0-837-463-B. It is called a “Carrier”. There were two carriers on my window, and I had to replace both of them.

Tip: If you remove the door panel and see broken pieces of green plastic at the bottom of the door, you have this problem. You can stop your work there and purchase the replacements before continuing.

You DO NOT have to remove the carrier…if you have the right tools and know how, this job is 15 min. per side to replace the window clips….one of the biggest gravy jobs in the dealership, trust me, I have done hundreds. This is a harry homeowner version with all the un-needed steps. Audi has gone through 4 revisions of these clips…Greg-Master Audi technician
