Strange Mini Electronic quirk?

This morning, I was on my phone via the Mini and parked the car, and turned it off. The bluetooth connect was still going. Opened the door, grabed the phone, and shut the door.

Walked a few feet and turned the phone off.

Came out for lunch and both windows were all the way down!

Got in the car started it and put the passenger windows up. Tried to put the driver window up, but it went all the way up and then back down to 1/2 position.

I tried to put the driver window up 3 times, and finally put it all the way down, then it went all the way back up fine.

Anyway was very strange. Everything was and continues to work fine after that.

So my guess is this would be a BMW electronics quirk.

Kind of funny unless it gets worse.

haha! ahh i love those quirks. I was getting out of my car and then got a call so i tried shutting the door and my window had gone up all the way instead of staying down 1/2 inch like its suposed to. Well it was one hell of a time getting my door to shut. I actually had to disconnect the battery in the parking lot to "reset" the system. Once i did that the window knew the door was open and droped the window.

go figure
