After parking my car between two vehicles this morning, I locked the car and went into the office. At 11.30 a colleague comes into the office and informs me all my electric windows are open. Both vehicles to the side of mine had gone, so obviously their drivers hadn't noticed the windows were open. Needless to say, with the driving rain, car seats are very wet. Wonder if anyone knows a reason why all the windows should just open on their own?
Mines a VW.</p> Generally, when I get to work or site, I get my various bags and stuff out of the car, then I lock the door and stuff the keys in my pocket. Then I assemble all my baggage and stuff other items in my pocket and various other orifaces (I'm very untidy) as I walk away from the car.</p> Nothing strange there. Til you understand the mechanism of my keys. One button locks the car. The other button however, you press once to open the drivers door, twice to unlock the other doors, then if you depress your finger for five seconds it opens all the windows (useful when approaching your car on a hot summers day). </p> So what I believe has happened, on more than one occasion, is that as I walk away from my vehicle, the key fob gets pressed up against my snotrag / house keys / wallet / massively oversized member * delete as applicable, and opens all my windows as I assemble aformentioned necessities.</p> Or something like that !</p> </p> Hope that helps.</p>
A.U.D.I. Mine does it all the time. Don't put your keys in your back pocket and sit on them. Press the unlock button for more than a few secs and all the windows open. Really useful feature that - don't know how I lived without it before. Oh, nearly forgot. If you press and hold the lock button, they all shut again. Again, a really useful feature.
Poltergeist. </p> My Vauxhall Victor had one. Once on the way back from the Flouch it grabbed the wheel and made me run into a wall. Had a right job trying to explain it to the magistrates.</p>
