My left window works fine when you use the controls on the left door, but if i try and put the window down from the drivers side it does nothing. It goes up using the drivers side control but not down?
WTF?

hey hey, it could be a FUSE... sounds silly, but I accidently made a short once, when messing with the pins on the drivers control switch (made a lovely pop and burning smell hehe) and had the same problem.....
I was upset as you can imagine, esp. as was suggested by the vw parts man it could be the motor blown and this was like £100+, i was like no way... and so consulted the fuse key card... checked each window icon one and would you know it... found a blown one (30AMP WHITE)... replaced it and all was fine again. I had also messed up the locking from drivers side too, the fuse solved that too...
Might not be the same problem you are having... but worth checking? Hope helps

I been having a few problems with my passenger window too... meant to have one touch right?? the drivers side works, but passenger side doesnt..
also i get the problem that sometimes i cant control passenger window from double switch on drivers side??? that i have to lean over to use the passenger side button... *if that made any sense?* not essential to the running of the car.. but bloody annoying at times!
