I can live with that for now.

dont mean to ask but since windows is the topic anybody here have a cracking/creeking sound when the window goes all the way up.
and
when my DS window is half way down it sounds like its not seated well when I hit a bump or pothole.

whatacar - did you ever manage to figure out what went wrong with your window? I am having the same issue now.
I will try the reset procedure first, but from a bit of research it sounds like I may have a mis-aligned window regulator. Our symptoms however are very similar.
This all started after the 2nd time I cleaned the carbon deposits from my power window motor.
Another issue I am getting is that the window seems to stay stuck all the way down or all the way up, and will stay there unless I open and close the door (providing a vibration to the regulator/motor).
Sorry for bumping an old thread...
