Rear Electric Blind Motor Replacement

Post by Zyox » Sun Jun 30, 2019 5:21 am

Hi all.
2007 RS4 saloon here. Rear sun visor/blind/sunshade device no longer works. Just a click and a failure of the motor to run. Mechanic reckons it's burnt out and needs replacing. Audi would like 1200eur for the parts alone - entire assembly only with no option to buy the motor separately.
Cheapest other option I could see was from the states for 700USD before even getting into taxes and shipping.

Anyone any experience in solving this issue? For a reasonable price bearing in mind it's just a fried motor... :shock:

Look for one being broken up, I have one that I'm looking to retro fit at some point but they do come up

It might be worth ringing Mervyn Ashton at Autoelectron,he is in Harrogate north yorkshire
He refurbs cabriolet roof motors, so might be able to help if you can send him the motor
His no is 0788 922927.
