Default Power window problem. Wrong forum, I know.

My buddy picked up a 02 WS6 M6 a couple months ago. It has about 35K on it. I have a 00 T/A A4. Now when my power window motors went bad, they went bad slowly. They kept going slower and slower and then finally stopped. My friend is having trouble with his now. His windows would go up half way, then stop. The only way to get them up is to wait an hour or two, then try again. But even trying that they would still only go up a little at a time. I find it hard to believe that both motors are going bad at the same time. We tried changing the fuse on the side of the dash, but that did not help. Has anyone had this happen???? Thanks.

That is what mine did before it died. It would go up a little and stop. An hour later the same thing.
