Disconnected my battery for the first time earlier today. When I finished working on the car and parked it, the windows didn't "auto-up" anymore. Oh noes! But wait, I'll check zpost before freaking out about having to pay for reprogramming. Found this DIY, presto! Windows "auto-up" again. w00t!
On thing I'll mention, and maybe it's already in the thread, is that each window must be done individually, i.e. doing one window does not automatically reset the other window. |

I'm having some issue resetting the window on the passenger side of the car after a battery disconnect. Got the drivers side working right away, but I've tried the passenger side like 15 times and couldn't get it to work again.
I have a Bav Technic Basic Cable and software, can I reset the auto roll up with this? |

No. The window needs to find where the top is. You can't tell it that through software.
Make sure the window goes up smoothly and is seating properly in the groove at the roof. Maybe if it's feeling resistance in an unexpected place it's getting confused.

I don't think the "auto up" function will work if the down and up limits haven't been set. Setting is a really easy process though. Start with windows up and doors closed. Turn ignition on. Press and hold down driver side* window button in down position and hold for at least 10 seconds after window is down. Pull up and hold up window button until window is up and continue to hold in the up position for at least 10 seconds after the window is up. Leave ignition on and repeat the process for the passenger side window. Turn ignition off. The travel limits for the windows will have now been set and stored, and you should be able to just momentarily touch the window button and have the window go all the way down or all the way up, and the window up function after the top has raised and closed should work again. *There's not a required order between driver or passenger side. You can do either one first. You also don't have to do both at the same time. You can do either one separately at any time the ignition is in the on or run position.

The procedure you posted is incorrect because it only sets the limit at the window down position and the hold time is too short. Try the procedure in my post above and see if that works before you go to the dealer.

I know this is ancient, but I just tried this after trying 2 or 3 other so-called reset procedures I found elsewhere. They didn't work. This works! THANKS!

Yes, this is an old post BUT I have a follow-up question. Every couple of days, my Z4C "forgets" how to drop the side glass 1/4" when the door is opened. I have to perform a reset and then it works fine.
Where exactly is that info stored? Where would I start looking for issues? Could it be shorting out? I don't have a battery issue and the car is being driven daily. Is seems that wherever the information is being stored is losing memory. Any help would be appreciated! Christine |

2003 Z4 E85 3.0 driver's window does not function
My 2003 Z4 E85 3.0 was stored in a farmer's equipment shed for the last six months with a trickle charger maintaining the battery.
Yesterday we successfully drove the Z4 out of storage but have a completely new issue: The driver's side window is fully up and will not go down. I can detect a brief pulse feeling when pushing the window switch down so I assume power is getting to window regulator but nothing happens to lower the window after a brief or prolonged press of the window switch. The passenger side window and the convertible top work just fine. The mirrors work fine. However, even though the passenger side window goes up and down I do notice it does not drop a bit as the convertible top closes as it had pre-storage. I 'd appreciate any DIY suggestions to try to restore the up/down functions of the driver's side window prior to going into the dealership. Thanks for your time/attention. |
