My problem is what is the correct way to shut windows. As far as I can see, once they are open you have to push them wide open and up as far as they can go before they flop back down to close. I have been doing this but it seems I have buggered up a couple of windows because they refuse to go in any direction other than up in open mode. I have stuck a screwdriver in once of twice which has released the mechanism but on one window a tiny bit of metal fell out and I don't know where it goes or how to get it back in.

I haven't explained this very well, but I am referring to the plastic windows on the coach bit and not the cab.

Any clues gratefully received.

Ours are the same Pusser, it can be a right pain at times but I have found no alternative apart from the little locking lugs that stick out of the edge of the arms, if you press these in lifting right up is avaoided (now I havnt explained that very well) but doing this can take donks

Hi

My windows were the same in our previous van.

I found it helped to find out what side the locking mechanism was on, and always push the window up fully on that side as opposed to pushing up in the middle of the window. This seemed to get the last centimetre out of the locking arms and worked most of the time.

I admit it didn't work every time and every now and then there was a window which would just play silly beggars for ages.

It always went wrong when you were in a hurry, or wanted to shout at the kids. Embarassed

Dave
