The power window motors of the Clubman are very smooth and work fast.

LOL Already did. Well not my head but my arm. with a good amount of preasure it rolls the window right back down again.

What I want to know is if I can have them recose my R56 07 with the Auto Up feature. I have my MA checking on that now.

I can assure everyone that the auto up windows do stop when something is blocking them on their way up.
My lifesize gorilla Joe is riding shotgun with me now. He left the BMW to be my passenger. The other two gorillas are still in the back of the convertible.

Today as Joe's arm was hanging out of his window I started putting the windows up. His window stopped partway as soon as the weight of his arm was on it. Surprised me, but I was glad he didn't get his arm stuck in there. Ouch!

He elicits a lot of strange looks when we are in traffic or at stop lights. But I love having him along for the ride as I have no other passengers ever.
