C4RA O

My passenger windo has decided to stop lowering and raising when opening the door, is this just the ddor switch, windo switch or new power windo motor needed, any one know???

my 1998 CLK has NEVER raised and lowered its window when i open and closed the door....is this normal or is this a problem? I know the SL does it, and BMW coupes do it. Also sometimes the passenger door window doesnt sit flush against the weather stripping and causes wind noise until i lower and raise the window from inside the car.

It lowers about 1/2 an inch on my 2001 Cabrio while the door is open. Once the door is shut is raises up to get a better seal.

C4RA O what year is your clk?

try to rest your windows. your owners manual explain how to re programe your windows. I can not remember it , but somthing like keep pushing your windows buttons for 2 or 10 seconds . somthing like that.

should my CLK be doing the window raise and lower??? I was surprised that it didnt do it when i got it but have been under the impression that it was something they didnt do the first year...?

Bagher

mine doesnt do this, my friends 330ci does it. i think only the cabrio will do this

my 99 cabrio does not raise or lower.

unsung

My coupe does it.

I think the window raise/lower started in MY 2001.

Yeah...either 2000 or 2001. I'm pretty sure they did it the same time that they made all the little changes and added the blinking mirrors. My 98 doesn't do it, and it makes it a lot harder to shut the passenger door

yes anyone that odn't know my car closes the door and never gets it right the first time... mine is a 2000 CLK320... and it doesn't lower or raise... to fix this problem... i sometimes just pop up the sunroof and it makes it so much easier to close the door...

C4RA O

The windows should definetley drop and raise when opening the door, my car is a 200o yr model with the blinking indicators.

smalldog

My car is a 2000 clk 320 also and the windows don't do that I going to look thru my manual

Bouncer

My 2001 CLK 320 does it.

This must have started late 2000 model year. If someone has a 2000 320 CLK (that the windows lower/raise) please post the date/year on the sticker in the driverside door. Other than that I think it started in 2001.

I just found out that these cars are supposed to do this!

My 2001 CLK55 does not do this. I tried re-sync-ing the windows but that didn't help. I'm sure it's supposed to because the manual says so, and it is the newer model w/ the blinking mirrors and stuff...

Any ideas?

JamesYang

Should our car do this..?? mine does not>,<..mine is 00'CLK320

my '99 430 Coupé doesn't do it either. is there a way to enable this feature if it isn't already set to do so?

Holson

The 2001+ cars are supposed to...

Check out your users manual, around pages 34+ in mine.

Thanks

My car is in the shop now....called service advisor on this and he said the feature is not on prev models.

When I recently changed the battery. The window (driver's side) would drop down an inch when the door was openned. I had to get out of the car, get back in through the passenger side raise the window, then turn off engine. The steelership said is was the motor, and would cost 5 to 6 hundred dollars. Big surprise.

Now what happen was, that it reset itself after one day of closing through the passenger side.

The car does have the feature, where the window will automatically drop a millimeter or so, to allow for air to escape and the door to close properly.

Hope this helps.

You do realize you responded to a post from 2005, I'm pretty sure he has had it resolved by now...lol

Fore101

Yes, I understand that. I just thought that others might benefit from what I went through.

But I appreciate the heads up.

Mostly all that needs to be done is to reprogram the switches. You'll find similar issues with all windows and the sunroof when you disconnect the battery. Unfortunately my 2000 does not have this feature, the window does not drop an inch. Like they said in an earlier post, guess this option was in the late 2000 model years +.
