Window wont close. Is this a common issue?
Window went down this morning but never went up. I hear a clicking noise when I try and close it, but nothing. It is my passinger rear.

Windows have sensors to prevent "pinching" fingers and such...check to make sure
molding/weather stripping isn't binding thus preventing the window from closing. My rear window wouldn't close....turns out some of the weather-stripping was out of place along the track, everything worked fine once lined up properly.

Happened to me...
dealer charged me $400 out of warranty. Had happened multiple times in the past with my VW and once before in the Audi while under warranty it was always simply a cheap plastic clip.
Once out of warranty it was a $300 part.
I was very skeptical, but couldn't leave my car with a sunken in window at school.
