you may have to re index your windows . . .that should be about it. . .

purt the window all the way up . . .then lift up on the button for 5 seconds . . . it's also covered in your owners manual . .

Good luck -

I don't know whether the preceding post will work for resetting the window indexing, but I know the info. I have below will do it.

Close the car door. Raise the window and hold the up switch an extra 3 seconds. Release. Without lowering the window, hold the up switch again for 3 seconds. Release. Done.

This is called resetting of the window indexing or power window initialize and is in the owner's manual. See page 2-17 of the 2005 owner’s manual, page 2-18 of the 2006 owner’s manual, page 87 of the 2007 owner’s manual, page 2-18 of the 2008 owner’s manual, or page 2-18 of the 2009 owner's manual.

We can't talk on the phone or text while driving, but apparently in Brazil you can watch movies while driving. Not fair! Just stay below 6500 rpm while watching movies!

Just hold the window up button with the door closed until you hear a click then release and do it a second time. The clock will also lose the time but every other setting should remain.
