I own a 2003 silverstone 6MT Z and recently my windows wont rollup all the way.They will go up all the way but then roll back down to half way.any suggestions? Going to the dealership tommorow!

 

Dealership can fix in 5 minutes.. its happened to me a few times.. Dont pay for anything.. all they do is just plug in thier scantool into your ECU and reset the window module

 

happens to me, you can either roll them up and hold the button up for a few seconds or roll it up but not the "auto up" way (pressing the button all the way up)

 

funny thing, mine did that as well but now the passenger does not even work at all. Already had to get the driver motor replaced now it looks like the same thing for the passenger. Thing is, when i got the car brand new in Nov 2003 (it is a 2004 model) i had heard there was some problems with the window motors for the 2003's. seems my car got some of the leftover 2003 motors. they would always roll down real sluggish until the driver side went out. after replacing it the window is lightning fast and no problems at all. i noticed the difference when rolling both down, driver side went down faster. going to day to get my passenger window replaced, all covered under warranty of course

 

temporary fix....bang on the door while hitting the switch to put the window up...you need to hit it right above the change holder

permanent fix....need a new motor, if under warrenty they will fix for free

edit...sorry i thought your window wouldn't go up at all (in your case, they just recalibrate the motor with some computer)

 

there is TSB for the window motor failing.

Mine is doing the same thing, and I just got off the phone with the dealer. He said they have to remove the door panel and hit a reset switch on the motor. He sees it a few times a year on different models (Altimas, Maximas, etc).

The kicker is that it is called an 'adjustment', which Nissan only covers under warranty for 12mo/12k. So 1 hour labor is around $92 to 'adjust' something that doesn't work.

After dealing with Nissan on the tire feathering issue and seeing how they treat their customers, I have 'adjusted' my description of the Z from "my 5th Nissan" to "my last Nissan"...

-D

 

thanks guys ! i think im gonna take her by the dealer tommorow

 

That's BS right there...it's not an adjustment it's a fix. Something is not working properly, therefore, it's broken and needs to be FIXED not "adjusted". Don't pay a dime. Let them do the service then just drive off. LOL
