Hi all,

I’ve noticed my passenger side window winder isn’t responding at all. It doesn’t respond to the switch input from the drivers side nor does it automatically rise and fall when the door opens

Is there a specific module or fuse to check for this before I give the dealer a call?

Try pulling Fuse 82 (LH door module) and Fuse 83 (RH door module) both are located in the passenger footwell fuse box.

If your door module has failed (common problem with earlier cars) then its an expensive fix, 2 x new "universal" door modules at circa £250 each plus fitting and a new software configuration file at circa £50 and AMDS coding by main dealer at circa £150 for modules to work.
A window regulator failure is circa £300 for the regulator itself.

I have just replaced my door modules (on my 2007 V8 Roadster) and the regulator was done last year.

£50 for CTRL+C and CTRL+V for a software file? That's shocking!
