This is one of those problems that is really p!ssing me off! The passenger window is stuck on the Arosa. However to make it worse it's stuck halfway open. It sounds like the motor gears have munched themselves, but I really don't have time to be mucking about with it at the moment. I took the door card off and tried raising it up but it didn't wanna budge. Anything got any tips how to get it closed, at least temporarily?

Have you tried opening the door and pulling the window up sandwiched between both hands while someone else presses the button?
If it wont work you might have to remove the motor and see if it will move then. After that the mechanism must have broken somewhere.

sounds like the wire has come off the roller jammed or snapped... if you can get the window up like spandelly say then wedge it up temporaraly with some wood....you might have to disconnect the wire from the botton of the glass to do this : )

Take the door card off and have a look. If it's the cable and pulley type mechanism, the cable eventually snaps or comes off the pulleys.
As has already been said, wedge it up with some wood until you fix it. If you're handy, remove the mechanism and motor (it's usually easier to replace the lot together) and take it with you to the scrappy to help match it up. I'd assume that a Lupo mechanism would also fit so that widens your options. It's usually a couple if bolts and scraped knuckles. Lube the replacement up too.
