S3 Window Motor

[Yaz K]

My window motor (driver side) needs replacing. I've looked through many threads here and it seems that it could come from either a VW, Rover, Granada or Saab! I've only checked out a Rover and that is not the same.
Has anyone actually found out where it is from? It is marked Bosch FPE 12 0130 821070.
By the way, it's definately the motor!
Thanks.

I thought it was from a Rover 800... is there anything in the bible? or the parts guide on here?


This - www.tvrcc-south-wales.co.uk/sparts.asp - suggests it might be a Citroen..!

I suspect it is a TVR special as TVR have had a habit of modding the windows bits. You could try Bosch if you have a part number but it could be worth checking with TVR as they are often cheaper. A number of owners have spent hours tracing parts only to find that TVR had them in stock and for less! Not always the case but it is worth a call just to make sure.

I have heard Renault crop up in a couple of conversations I have had about this in the past. Just another suggestion, although the later window motors I have had here in the past have had TVR specific part numbers on them which look like they were put on by the manufacturer
