How do you remove a rear door panel on an Audi A3 4 Door

If the window fuse was blown none of them would work. You have a switch problem - either the two rear door switches both failed, or you have broken wiring going to the window motors from the rear switches. It's also possible (if the door panels were removed) that the rear switch harnesses are not plugged in.

there is 1 screw under the door handle, and 1 screw at the bottom of the panel. the rest of the panel is held on with clips. once clips are released, push the panel straight up and remove.
hope this helps
Can I ask why you are trying to remove the panel?

Thanks for using ' Fixya ' and have a nice day!!

Though I am not entirely familiar with the audi vehicle, mostly when trying to remove the outside door handle, you need to first remoce, the inside panel where the handel is located. Once this has been done, look to where the door handle comes to the inside of the door from the outside of the car. It should have some sort of a clip/ pin/ screw or other fastening mechanism, which holds it to the car from the inside. Remove that fastening mechanism and the handle should come off.

Here's how:

First, take out the two screws at the top of the door panel, screwed into the top corners and pointing toward the middle of the door panel.

Second, inside the door pull (where you pull the door shut) is one screw pointed backward - remove that. Then force the inside "lining" of that pull downward and remove it.

Third, remove the screws you have just uncovered (two on the front door, one on the rear door).

That's it - just lift the panel upward and it'll be off.

Remove all screws, some will be hidden under plastic taps like on the pull strap. Take a door panel tool and work it around the panel to find the plastic pins that hold the panel on then use the tool to pop them out. Real simple job, just pay attention. The problem is most likely a bad window motor.

All door panels lift staight up after removing all the appropriate hardware; in your case, as well as mine two weeks ago, three screws for the rear doors. DO NOT PRY THE PANEL:OFF. When you slide the door panel up, you will see several L-shaped plastic tabs attached to the backside that engage into slots in the door frame., then hopefully you will be glad you didn't pull the panel straight out instead of sliding it up.

This is great as I am doing one of these right this moment and this one has gone long since unanswered and there appears to be no solution.

For the front panel.

1. Remove the two Phillips screws front and rear at the top of the panel.
2. Remove 3 - 4mm Hex head screws in the arm rest, these are expansion fasteners so you will not be able to completely remove the screw. When you have these loose enough the arm rest will slip straight out.
3. Pull interior door handle until you can see the Phillips screw hidden near the hinge and remove.
4. Pull out door handle and carefully release cable from the handle assembly. Be careful with this clip as it can easily be bent and damaged.
5. Start at bottom of door panel and pull the panel straight out, once the bottom is free lift upward until panel comes off.
