Guys i have a 2007 IS 350. This doesn't happen all the time but its happened 5-6 times in the last few months. I usually leave my car in the garage and when i go to get in my car in the morning every window in the car is 1/2 down. Its winter and of course i never roll the windows down. Is there something i'm doing to cause this or is this some type of electrical failure?

thanks,
Ncage

 

Very interesting , I have the same problem with my IS 250 2007. It happens maybe 4-5 times/ year. I have asked my dealer, but they have never heard of it. I guess it's something you just can recreate when you want it, so I do not know how to show them the problem.

 

could be that you are holding down the unlock button on your key in you rpocket or something

 

LOL, you guys are a bunch of yoyo's. Your sitting on the remote and leaning on the unlock button which rolls the windows down. LMAO

 

Haha Steve you definitly could be right. I just don't want to be a yoyo and do it while my car is outside in the rain

 

my window was f'n up and when i would roll it up it would roll back down half way. I just held the window up button for i think its 20sec? I was reading that it resets it.. but than again i have a 2gs lol...hasnt done it since though!
hope you find out whats up

 

You can have your dealer change the LPS option to disable the ability to roll down the windows from the remote. I decided to do so a while back when I came out of work and found all my windows rolled down. (Thankfully it wasn't raining, and nothing was stolen)

 

Yeah, I did this once to my gf's 328i. I guess I was leaning on it somehow and opened all the windows and sunroof while I was in the restaurant. I have disabled this feature as I see no point in this function.

Btw, cute Bichon Frise. Mine is 8 months old.

 

this has never happened to me but i think i will disable it too if it does every happen. i have never had the need to have all my windows and my moonroof open all at once

 

so I did the holding down the Unlock button and all the windows/moonroof opened. What is the opposite? Making them all shut?

 

there isn't a way to make them all shut.

 

Thanks, Bichons rule!

From what I understand, if you remove the key cover and put the mechanical key in the door lock and hold it in the locked position, the windows and sunroof will close. Needless to say, this is far more trouble than it is worth.

 

Yeah, on US spec cars you can raise them with the mechanical key but can't do it wirelessly.

Outside north america I believe the remote can raise them.

The thinking is people in NA are too sue-happy to allow the feature here.

 

key statement

 

I like it because on very warm days I can lower the windows and open the moonroof as I'm walking up to the car, thereby making it much cooler inside before I step in.
