adjusting an electric window

[Shuvi McTupya]

I am having an issue with the passenger side window on a Peugeot 206 cc.

As you can see in this pic, the window goes up high enough but sticks out at the top when it is all the way up, if i apply a little pressure i can pop it into place but every time i put the window down (or the roof down) i have to push the window back into place.


There is enough room there to 'post' a pound coin through the gap, so it is pretty bad for wind noise, let alone letting in the rain!

I would imagine it's because it's not dropping the window a fraction before you shut it - they should drop the window by 5mm when opened, then raise it once shut again.

From the research i have done, this model does not do that, it is a feature that was added to later cars

ETA: when you operate the roof switch, the first thing that happens is the windows go all the way down. when you put the roof back up, you then have to put the windows up using the window switches.

That is how the 206cc works. the 307cc does what you describe.

I can't see a question but I assume it's, how do I adjust the window?

Otherwise it's not dropping down to clear the seal, which should be easy to check.

Thank you, i have actually come across that page, and I dont know if i am just really stupid but those instructions are as clear as mud to me!

Plus I don't have any suction cup thingies. Maybe i will just show that page to my neighbour who is a bit more 'handy' than i am and see what he makes of it

They all do this, it's yet another stty bit of Peugeot design. Still at least they are consistent.

You may be able to make it work for a while with careful adjustment of the window and liberal application of silicone to the rubber seal.

I have had the door panel off once to adjust the height of the window as originally it wasn't going high enough to catch the trim at the top of the window. I just loosened the clamps and lifted the glass a smidgeon. Now it goes high enough but sticks out a bit!

I was hoping there was another adjustment for the 'angle' ..
