Nice try, but you can scratch that theory. Switch from rear door doesn't work either.

Your UPS guy ever show up? I think he may be in cahoots with mine. They're having a party with my wheels and your valve caps.

L: You are in "the biz"...
beat on that BusterBrown guy!

Knock on freakin wood, but I
have never had a window glitch of
any kind in 4 1/2 yrs on my '01.

Mine must be an anomaly.

No valve caps, but UPS just dropped off a great set of rims and tires.

BMW will tell you they are not defective. Fact is they are a poor design. Cable actuated lifters are smoother when they work, but prone to failure, especially if not used. To keep failures to a minimum wind the window down at least 2-3 times a week. This will help prevent the cable from getting a kink where the wheels are and cause the cable to jump and fail.

As for the window getting stuck up, that is probably the limit switch. Manually move the window motor and it should release the limit switch and window function will return to normal.
