Default Window calibration on convertibles

Have those of you with convertibles been having any problems with the "auto-up" feature on the driver/pass windows frequently having to be re-calibrated? I find I have to re-calibrate mine every time the roof goes through a down/up cycle. I'm guessing the tolerance of the vert roof height is more than that of the calibration sensitivity of the window.

Nope. 8,000 miles and no problem. Sounds like time for a trip to the dealer.

Found out what my problem was - the front windows appear to ALWAYS bounce back when the rears are down (and the roof is up). Raise the rear windows first - and the fronts work just fine.

Interesting - but you still should have it checked. Mine doesn't do that. I can't tell you how many times I've come out in the morning to take a drive and found the car locked up with the rear windows down since I forgot to raise them the night before.
