Adjustment procedure - Gtv

  • Remove the door panel (see Repair Manual - Group 70 - Body - Doors - Door Panel).
  • Remove the protective inner trim taking care to avoid damage to it.
  • Re-connect the power window switch.
  1. Using the gauge of tool kit 1.823.030.000 check the correct distance (nominal) between the lower bracket of the window guide and the corresponding spacer.
  2. If necessary, adjust the distance slackening the lock nut (a) and working on the centre nut (b).

  3. centre nut (b)

Note: This check, and, if necessary, restoring the nominal dimension in mating between the guides and the door frame is a necessary condition for correct adjustment of the window.

In fact the correct restoring of this dimension allows the guides to have the same centre of curvature as the body profile, optimising smooth functioning of the window and correct pressure on the seals.
