Windows sequence when lowering the top

[Nick_USA]

I was comparing the opening sequencing of the cabrio top on my Boxster against that of my wifes 996 cab and noticed something very different.....

When you unlock the latch on the Boxster the windows drop about 6 inches to allow the top to open, but stay this way when the top is fully open.

On my wifes 996 cab, the windows drop in a similar way when you use the switch to open the top. However on the 996 when the top is fully open the windows return to the closed position. Much more useful I hear you say.

So why the difference or is this a fault on my Boxster ???

On my boxster, the go up again.

On my 2002 Boxster S the windows remain at the lower position (not too practical!)

On my 2003 base Boxster, the windows remain at the lower position. When raising the top, the windows go fully up.

2002 S; same here. I actually appreciate that they don't go all the way up, because I'd lower them anyway.

Same with my 02, they stay open a few inches. Like jmatta I would be opening them anyway so I typically open them all the way before I open the top-a little less wear on the motors.
