e92 windows

charliesum · 02-14-2011, 04:31 AM

my windows used to drop halfway when i opened the doors now they dont and my son nearly catches his eye on the corners
any ideas how to get them to drop again?
its non i drive if that makes a difference

press the unlock button to unlock the doors and then press again within 10 secs and the windows will drop when you open the door.

BGM · 02-14-2011, 05:24 AM

yeah press the unlock button twice

charliesum · 02-14-2011, 05:39 AM

Blimey.

A new one on me

I have done it by accident a few times, thinking it was just some software glitch lol!

Thank you.

Tee212 · 02-15-2011, 01:42 PM

news to me! lol....does it roll back to its previous position once the door (s) are shut? How do you turn this feature off?

BGM · 02-15-2011, 03:40 PM

lock and unlock the car

m1bjr · 02-15-2011, 04:04 PM

Did you know if you unlock and hold then all the glass rolls down so long as you hold the unlock button Tee?

Ditto in reverse.
Good for ventilating a car in summer...

The half-lowering of the windows on the (frameless) coupe makes getting in and out a lot easier in confined spaces.

Perhaps it's a bloke thing but does nobody read the handbook these days?

charliesum · 02-17-2011, 02:00 AM

errr nope !!!

CarAbuser · 02-17-2011, 08:43 AM

That would be admitting defeat.

I'm sorry but if I had a quid for everytime I've read a thread and thought ffs

then I'd probably have enough money to keep me going in V power for a year!

I have my theories but can't be arsed tbh 'cos n'owt will ever change so I'll carry on cringing, then laughing and thinking ...............

Ya i knew about that secret but i have to get it coded for the window roll up...rolling down is great for the summer time like u said.

Love finding out new secrets with this car..its like Zelda when you place a bomb on a wall or burn a tree down lol.
