ALL THE WINDOWS AND SUNROOF WERE OPEN ON MY '03 BMW 325xi

One morning I went into the garage and noticed that all my windows were down and the sunroof was open. It's winter and very cold here so I know I didn't leave them open. Since then it has happened three other times. Any ideas on what could be causing this?

    I have a 325i. Same exact thing just happened to me. January in Massachusetts, so I know I didn't leave them open.

Make sure nobody plays with the car key after you lock it because if anybody push the unlocking button on your key remote it will unlock the car and if they push and hold it long enough it will open the windows and sunroof

Chances are you like me have had your keys in your pocket and hit the center button in a form of holding it down.. as you know that opens all windows , including the sunroof..

First i presume the garage door is locked.... i would look at the relay that controls your power windows .... replace it... that should fix the problem.

03 caddillac cts sunroof wont open

If the sunroof is anything like the power windows, the auto function has to be reprogrammed by holding down a bout 5 seconds, up about 5 seconds, down about 5 seconds and up about 5 seconds. I know there is probably a faster way, but since that way works, I wouldn't want to hand out any other kind of advice.

In the same way as you can use your key to open the windows by unlocking 2 times and holding the key in unlock position the windows will open, the criminal broke your lock and used a screwdriver to the same affect. You can also use your key to close the windows by locking and holding the key in that position. If the sunroof is open it will also close.
