Ford C-Max Window Regulator Replacement Parts

The Ford C-Max ran across two distinct generations: the first-generation (Mk1) covered 2003 to 2010, and the second-generation (Mk2) ran from 2010 onwards, with a facelift arriving around 2015. Regulators from a Mk1 will not cross over to a Mk2 due to the completely different door and frame design, so always source within the correct generation. If your car sits right on or near the 2010 changeover point, confirm the exact generation with your breaker against your registration before ordering.

Both a 2007 and a 2009 C-Max are first-generation (Mk1) models, so you are within the same generation and the regulator is likely to be compatible, provided you match the correct side — NS (nearside, passenger) or OS (offside, driver). Always confirm with the breaker using both registrations to be certain, as there can be minor running changes within a generation.

The Mk2 C-Max facelift arrived around 2015, and while both cars share the same generation body shell, whether regulators interchange cleanly across that facelift boundary is not something to assume. Name the boundary to your breaker and ask them to cross-reference both registrations, as door internals can change at a facelift even when the outer shell looks the same. Make sure you also specify NS or OS, as these are not interchangeable regardless of year.

Trim level does not affect window regulator fitment on the C-Max; the regulator is determined by generation, side (NS or OS), and whether the part is for a front or rear door. However, higher trims such as Titanium may have had different electric motor or feature specifications, so the regulator mechanism itself should still physically fit but confirm with the breaker that the motor and wiring connector match if you are replacing the full assembly. Cosmetic differences like door-panel trims are unrelated to the regulator frame fitment.

No — NS (nearside, passenger/left) and OS (offside, driver/right) regulators are mirror images of each other and are not interchangeable, even on the same car. Always specify the exact side when requesting a quote from a breaker. Fitting the wrong side will mean the regulator simply will not install correctly in the door frame.

The Grand C-Max is a larger, seven-seat MPV with a different body shell and door configuration to the standard five-seat C-Max, so parts between the two models are not directly interchangeable. Always source a regulator specifically listed for the standard C-Max or the Grand C-Max depending on which vehicle you have, and confirm with your breaker against your registration. Treat them as separate models for fitment purposes.
