Audi A3 Window doesn’t go up, auto close/open feature broken

Is it a 4 door? Can you make the window go up and down via the door itself?
Also does it not work from the front and have you checked you haven't knocked the button or switch to disable the back windows

Needs to be able to close the window to reset, then should be as simple as below, but this doesn't fix the currently stuck window. And agreed, if one window is faulty then the full close using remote key fob is likely not going to work as will need the below reset doing first

All windows down to fully open and hold the button down for an extra couple seconds

Then windows all the way up and hold the button for a few extra seconds.


To make it clear, press and hold down or up all the way down and keep holding. Don't use one touch up/down (edited)

Not sure it helps but I do remember something on a 2011 audi which had a similar issue after window was jammed due to ice and the convenience open/close no longer worked and auto close stopped. And it needed reset the process was to roll down and back up each window in turn (not all at same time) to reset the pinch safety feature.
The window not going up could be faulty motor but you could get it scanned to check for faults or it's it's getting jammed and rolling back down e.g. the aperture seal isn't in right.

You need to reset it using window switches inside the car. I can't remember off the top of my head but unless Google search doesn't help you I will update it later.

Did you drive from the garage with the window open?

I don't think it'll really relate to the MOT as it's not a testable part.

On my Mercedes, the window would come up and then come back down. Found there was a sequence to reset the windows which solved the issue.

Maybe Audi has something similar?
