J jayware33 Member Fife Feb 24, 2014 #1 Hi, When I open my car door the window goes down about 2cm and then back up when the door is closed. Is this normal and if so, what is the purpose of this? Thanks John

C Carol M Lifer Feb 24, 2014 #2 Yes it's normal. It drops down so it sits lower than the roof/seal for opening & closing.
J jayware33 Member Fife Feb 24, 2014 #3 Thanks for the reply, My worry though is that in the winter when the windows are iced up and they are stuck and won't go down, how will this mechanism work?

Click to expand... Apply some Gummi Pflege to the rubber seals which reduce any moisture from freezing the window to the seal. Tim.
