Guide the rear left door glass up and down along its intended path with the Dorman window regulator 749-696, a power window regulator from Dorman - OE Solutions for the 2004-2014 Audi A3 and 2004-2013 Audi A3 Quattro. It is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications, installs in the rear left position, and is sold as the regulator only, without a window motor.
The regulator is the mechanism inside the door that carries the glass as it opens and closes. If a worn or broken regulator is behind a window that moves slowly, sits crooked, won't stay up or grinds as it travels, this replacement regulator is designed to take its place.
- Engineered to match the original: Dorman designs and tests this unit to match the fit, function and performance of the factory window regulator on the listed vehicles.
- Cycle tested: As part of Dorman's quality testing, it is run through thousands of up-and-down cycles in an actual vehicle door.
- Engineered in the USA: Dorman engineers this regulator in the USA and backs it with a long history in the automotive aftermarket.
- Direct fit: It is reverse-engineered to the original equipment shape and dimensions so it fits directly in the door.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this the right window regulator for a 2004-2014 Audi A3 or 2004-2013 Audi A3 Quattro?
It is listed for the rear left door of the 2004-2014 Audi A3 and the 2004-2013 Audi A3 Quattro. Check the "Vehicles it fits" section to confirm your exact vehicle.
Does this window regulator come with the window motor?
No. Dorman lists 749-696 as a power window regulator, regulator only, so the window motor is not included.
Which door does this regulator install in?
It is cataloged for the rear left position. It is not the part for the front doors or the rear right door.
What are signs a window regulator may need replacing?
Signs include a window that moves slowly or unevenly, tilts in the frame, drops into the door, or grinds or clicks. Diagnose the cause first, because a motor or switch fault can cause similar symptoms.
How did Dorman test this regulator?
Dorman cycled it thousands of times in an actual vehicle door. It also tested the regulator to match the fit, function and performance of the original on the listed vehicles.
