Passenger window goes down when running at 200km/h? E92

Hello
When I run over 200km/h the window goes down and all this at the same time as a high speed race makes me go crazy! Has anyone had the same problem with your car? I would like to no if am alone with this thing. Thanks for any anwsers

I'm assuming 200km/h is around 125mph. I've been 135mph and my window didn't open.

Does it go all the way down? Or just a little bit?

I often drive over 200 and I never had that problem. I did have a problem with the rear window (e90) It was making a loud pop when i lower it. Took it to the shop and they told me it was a problem with the motor. They had to take the door apart and change it...

+1.

One of the usual faults in the E92s is that the side windows pop out of their upper guide at very high speeds. It is even worse with cross winds.

My car had this very same problem, and I had it checked at the dealer. They told me that the window regulator was out of spec, and they corrected it. sadly, the problem is still present, but it occurs at a higher speed than before the adjustment.

The window doesnt open completly, just a bit. But that is annoying enough in those high speeds.
I should tell my local dealer about that, I hope they can help me out. Thanx for ur answers!

there may be adjustments for the coupe windows, as they don't follow a track as a framed e90 window.

they can adjust how much the glass pushes against the door frame. I had this issue on my e46 M3, and got it adjusted.

Weird. I was pulling out of my street a couple weeks ago, and had both windows roll down out of nowhere

I bet that would scare the shit out of you--probably makes a pretty loud noise? Never heard of this--time to run out and test it!

I just remembered that when I was cruising at 135 I had the sunroof open. That would make a difference.
