Premium, large-text eBay description template for a right front window regulator. Built for clarity, fitment confidence, and search visibility while avoiding active content.
Part overview
This is a right front window regulator for the Volkswagen Tiguan Mk2 / second generation platform, identified by OE number 5NA837462A. It controls the movement of the front right window glass using the regulator mechanism inside the door.
Fitment rule: always match the OE number against your removed part and confirm against VIN before ordering. Do not guess by registration alone.
What it does
The regulator guides the window glass up and down, keeping the glass aligned inside the door frame. A failing regulator can stop the glass moving correctly, cause sticking, rattling, poor sealing, or complete window failure.
Common symptoms of failure
- Window drops into the door or will not stay raised.
- Grinding, clicking, or cable noise from the door.
- Glass moves slowly, unevenly, or tilts.
- Switch works but the window does not move.
- Window jams part-way open or closed.
