We've just had the first frost of the year and it's taken nearly 10 minutes to free up the drop window mechanism so I can open and close the door. It drove me mad when the same thing happened many times last year. It seems that the cut off sensor is set to a very low tolerance (I guess for safety) so with even the mildest of frosts like today, the windows don't move up or down. You either have to get a jug of hot water and pour it over the windows or drive the first part of your journey with a bent window and an alarm ringing in your ear, alerting you that the doors open, Does anyone have the same problem....Can Audi fix this by adjusting the tolerance? The older Audis with the same window drop system never had the same issue. I suspect it's Health and Safety overruling Vorsprung durch Technik. Or it might be that Audi have tried to save on build cost by using a less powerful motor. I can't think of any other reasons. Comments, experiences, fixes, advice, all very welcome.
