Renault Megane Mk3 - Passenger Window Repair.
This is a job that has been needed sorting for too long now, so new parts ordered and job done.
This unfortunately is the last job on the Megane, as we have since bought a new car to replace / upgrade this.
Thanks for watching

Whoever wants to try it, definitely take the glass out first. Usually the mechanism works to some extent. Take it down to remove the bolt on the right. Lift it halfway down, remove the black oval plastic cap near left insulation and you will see the bolt on the left. Carefully lift the glass with hands and it will come out. This will make your life much better. Don't forget to use a liquid or spray grease to lubricate the rails well. Cheers.

Cheers mate the mechanism was so bent on mine I didn't have much luck but if it were just faulty im sure it would have been a smoother process, but I'm all about giving it a go. Thanks for watching and thanks for the great advice im going to pin this comment 😀

Thank you very much. Because of your video I knew how to replace that part. Mine was also bended + ball joint jumped out of the plastic piece at the rail. I ordered replacement part, which was looking different from the original part. It came with instruction manual and it was shown it fits both sides of the car... I was very sceptic till bolts finally sat in their place. Don't have expectations to fix the old mechanism - joint was flexing VERY hard in comparison to old piece and pushing ball joint back to it;s place will solve problem just for the moment... I suggest to brush rubber rails inside the doors. I simply used dry rag. After connecting glass with the mechanism it was quite hard to move it by hands (electric motor disconnected) I thought something is wrong, but kept assembling everything back. To my surprise - window was moving up and down fastest in comparison with other 3. Which made me think that the others may die soon. AS in the video - window didn't closed completely. Just lift down the glass till the end and then keep closing still it stops - VOILA. One more thing - as in the pinned comment - just lift glass down that left plastic glass holder line with black oval cover - you don't need to destroy seal of inspection cap. Thank you William !

Hi! I have a fluace almost the same door ,solved it whitout replacement needed. But there are several litle white plastic pins on the carpit side wich allways brakes when im treieing to put the door back togather. And when i disassamble the door to replace them, i brake even more, done this now several times and i cant put it togather whitout brakeing them. This way i have gaps between the carpet and the metal side and when i grab the door from inside to close it, its loose a bit. Any advice? I broke now like 10 pins and geting a bit pissed.

Maybe search for a better quality clip, cheap and cheerful ones are made of poor quality plastic and do brake, in theory once aligned they should just pop together and you have no issue. Maybe before pushing the panel double/triple check alignment

My driver side window has been giving me issues (goes down fine, but struggles to go up, have to tug with my hand to get it up). Realised that the edge of the window near the front of the car is not sliding between the two rubber guards, but instead it's between the outer guard and the door itself. I don't know how it able to "slide out", but I'm guessing in order to get it back to it's correct position I'll have to disassemble the door similar to how it's done here. Any recommendations? Should I try to give it a go myself, or just take it to a garage? (I have the same Megane)

I also have a problem with the megane 3, with the driver side window.. After a couple of times running it up and down it just stops working and it will only be able to close. After that it won't work for a minute or 2 and then that it starts working again. I thought it's the window motor, I replaced it with one from the scrapyard and the problem persists. Do you have any idea what the problem might be? I thought the old window motor overheated, but the new one does exactly the same. It seems it's a protection when there's a signal that it overheats it shuts the motor down. It drives me nuts..

To be honest I genuinely hate electronics and the gremlins surrounding, there could be a number of issues, runners, regulator, motor, switch. Unfortunately replacing with used parts these may also have the same issue. My clio has all new parts and the drivers window still wont work! Does my head in

@@WilliamMurfitt Yea, true.. And Renault still has a bad image from the past when the electronics went haywire in most of the previous Megane models (especially Megane 2).. I've recently also replaced the drivers door lock because that one decided to lock only once per ten times when I hit the lock button on the remote.. ( but I fixed that, the lock is brand new though) I wonder if it was a smart choice to go for Renault, even though people say they ihave mproved alot.. I'm not so sure.. At least the car always starts and engine issues are not so often.. So thats a plus point. Greetings from your neighbour, Holland.

i have a 2009 Megane Coupe 1.5dci, it's a mk 3 (the early mk 3 not the newer shape mk 3) same as yours, i hit a flooded part of the road (not deep but at speed) which made the engine stop, i pushed the car to the side of the road but would not start at all, after getting towed home i replaced the battery and after half hour of spitting and farting it eventually started and now runs fine - problem is i have no power going to my drivers door, no electric window, no electric mirrors and the small light at the bottom of the door that lights up when door opens is dead too, passenger window works but only using passenger door switch - passenger window switch on drivers door is dead, central locking works ok, glove compartment fuse for drivers window is ok too. i thought relay but why mirrors dead? and no door light? it's driving me insane
