Default My Z has Tourette Syndrome...

As the title says. Every once in a while for the past few weeks now, whenever I open my driver's side door, sometimes the window will spaz out and pop up and down a couple times or more. Not all the way, just enough like when you open the door normally.

WTF?

Nothing has been done to the car lately. It just started doing it.

Do I need to "re-program" the window or just disconnect the battery for 30 minutes or something?

Whoa...airbag!!! All new cars do that honey.

Ahem,....yes, try the battery, then the stealership. The other day i didnt close my door all the way pulling forward at the pump, the door was like "kinda" closed but not so much and the window was going up/down/up/down like an inch at a time. Reminded me of a robot with a fatal error.

Look at the door open switch. That would be my guess.

I'd try the reset procedure first, just because it's so quick and easy. If still having problems, I'd then check the door switch. If all else fails, then I'd try pulling a battery cable.

If you're only cracking the door open a bit, you might be confusing the computer.

I've had that happen on the rare occasions that I just crack my door open slightly. It seems the computer controlling the window can't figure out whether I'm about to continue to open or close the door, so it goes up and down ever so slightly, about the same amount it would when opened so that air can escape the cabin when it closes.
