Hi mate, when i still had my V36 I had issues with the windows after I replaced a battery.

Give this a shot, it might work for you as well:

* put the ignition to "ON"

* push the buttons down to open the windows & hold this for about 5 seconds after the windows wind all the way down

* push the window buttons up to close the windows & keep holding the buttons for about 5 seconds after the windows wind all the way up

After I did this my windows worked fine for me.

Let me know how you go

all good, happy to help. :)

For the record I'm not 100% sure if the method I use is the proper handbook method, I just went from memory on a trick a service manager showed me on a 2006 350z when I was working in car sales, but hey it works ahaha

I didn't have issues with my dash lights coming on... try resetting the ecu & see if that works

Mine was clicking the door central locking for no apparent reason after charging the battery up. It was clicking like pretty constantly but not actually locking or unlocking the door. Really weird. Anyway i disconnected the main drivers window control with the central locking button removed the circuit board and sprayed it with contact cleaner its been fine since.... Anybody know anything about this?

It was deff that circuit board as with it disconnected it stopped straight away. I could still lock and unlock the car with the key fob.

Just an FYI, and to bump this for others. I had 2 problems with my passenger side electric window on my 2008 370HT

1. When I closed the door with the window up, it would actually leave the window open about 2 centimetres. I had to manually go over to the drivers side, and wind the window up/closed.

2. When I held the up for the passenger window (drivers side or passenger side control), the auto wind up did not function.

I found another thread on another site, and it suggested the same as above, but 10 seconds hold when down, winding up and holding while its at the highest for 10 seconds. I did these steps, and now both problems are resolved.:91_thumbsup:

      Sorry, are coilovers ACTUALLY ILLEGAL in NSW? They aren't in Vic, as long as they retain 70% of stock travel and the car is above 100mm off the ground. Does NSW actually have a law making coilovers actually illegal? RWC/Blue Slip/Engineering people not knowing the actual f**king laws boils my blood. Demand them to point to the documentation that states a coilover is illegal. (it may exist in NSW )

      But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?

      Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.

      Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
