Window - auto indexing not functioning
Just got the car back from the dealer, first oil change, and the driver side auto indexing is not functioning - it stays up.
I had a problem with it staying down before and messed around with it for about 15 minutes and got it working, but no luck this time.
Anyone have this problem? Anyone know a solution?
The window itself is working fine, just that auto indexing.

Have you tried to "re-index" it? The procedure is in the Owner's Manual and very easy to do.
Power Window Initialize
After a power reconnect such as battery replacement, the
window index-up feature will not function until the system
is initialized. Once power is restored, do the following:
1. Close the door.
2. Raise the window by pulling up the switch.
3. Hold the up switch for three seconds after the
window is closed. Release the switch.
4. Hold the up switch again for three seconds and release

The Proper Procedure is...
From page 2-18 of the 2006 Owners Manual:
