Have you ever pulled up to the the drive through window to get your first cup of coffee of the day, hit the switch to roll down the window and boom!? Your Volvo S60 window glass tilts, slides down crooked, and eventually drops down into the door sideways. So frustrating!

The P2 chassis vehicles have sliding blocks that ride on two rails which are attached to the window glass on one side, and Volvo window regulator on the other. Over time these blocks become brittle and eventually break. Once they crumble, there’s nothing holding the glass into place. Since this is a known issue, it’s not a bad idea to replace them as preventative maintenance.

– First, remove the inside mirror cover.
– Next, remove the grab handle cover.
– Now, remove the two T-25 torx behind the cover.
– Then, remove the 8 push pin door panel clips.
– Now, remove the door panel, unhook the door handle release clip, and remove the connectors from the panel.
– Cut around the grey insulation cover with a razor blade and remove it.
– Position the window regulator to where you can gain access. This is easier if you hook the switch back up and power the regulator into place.
– Remove the lock clips from the sliding blocks.
– Remove the blocks and replace.
– Grease the rails in which the blocks pivot.
-Installation in reverse order.

Do you have the Interior Door-mirror cover part #? I broke it while putting it on

Francisca Banahene says:

Straight forward. Great video. Thanks for posting!

gary sutton says:

A perfect video. Just had my passenger window fail due to the plastic clip disintegration. This helps me massively now on how to quickly replace said item. Many thanks, Gary (UK).

Michael Griffin says:

I installed both blocks but the frame keeps bending in the back when the window goes up in down in the front of the frame keeps falling in.

Chris Jackson says:

Wait one minute???? The one on the 2000 S80 is flipped around. I’m working on the blind side . The channel is facing outward not inward. I can’t even see the clips once they are snapped in the channel. The regulator arms pull in when they snap in not like yours that push away from you when they snap in. Is there any videos that show this application.

The driver side window on my v70r it's about an inch from closing in auto mode and then rolls all the way back down. Rolls up fine in manual mode. Have you heard of this happening before?

Waldemar Sand says:

So if only one side off the Window moves up and down its one of blue plastic things?

Michael Griffin says:

Why didn't you show the front side ? What's wrong if the front of the window keeps falling in?

Andrew Tyrell says:

Wow. This looks super easy compared to what I expected I'd have to do.

Maciej Nejman says:

At least I found a very good tutorial about the thing I am convinced happened to my driver's widow. My mechanic suggested me to replace all the windows regulator mechanism which is in my opinion unreasonable as four months ego I removed a driver's door panel and saw it from the inside. That time I only applied some white grease to the moving parts and then it helped. Hope that is nothing more serious. Thanks.
