My van did this

Youll likely find the plastic carrier that the window sits in has snapped.

No expensive to fix but fiddly.

Iirc i was about 10 quid each for the brackets.

I removed the door panel off mine (stripped and scrapped the rest of it) and found that the panel's hardboard core was a bit damp and the panel just crumbled down at the bottom. Hope it doesn't happen to yours if it gets wet as one of mine will never re-fit. The passengers side is perfect.

You could always fit carbon inserts ;O)

Why don't you register for a Peugeot forum and ask there rather than registering on a bike forum and asking a car question 🙄

This is a normal part of French car ownership, get used to scraping ice from the inside of the windscreen.

You specifically chose to register on a bike forum to ask a car question.

Good move 😉

My advice, don't try and fix it yourself, take it to someone who knows what they are doing.

Judging by your previous form, I would recommend taking it to your local Fruit and Veg shop.

They should be able to help. 🙂
