Passanger Window won't go all the way up!

My 135i's passenger window will only go up 95%. The window's used to also roll down a tiny bit upon entry and exit and it has stopped doing it as well (must do it to take off cabin pressure?). Anyone have any ideas?

I'm not sure if this is it exactly, but there's a problem when you don't roll the rear windows up first. The front windows get out of alignment.

I think one of the problems then is that it won't go all the way up. But maybe that was only the convertible?

I can see the future already, we'll be doing "Service Packs" a couple of times per year to fix software issues ala MS Windows ..

It sounds like the window is staying in the door open postion. Could be the software glitch posted above, or it could be that the door switch isn't working right and it thinks the door is open all the time. The windows will only roll up about 95% of the way with the door open.

Thanks, I'm about 4.5 hours from a dealer, so I'll have them investigate when I bring it in for its first service.
