2013 Leon windows opening when locked.

I returned to my car last night, thankfully parked on my parents drive to find the passenger door window fully open - having had a quick search it seems it was/is a common problem of moisture getting into the window controls of VAG cars.

Question is, do I have an on going problem and do i need to get it back to the dealer or is it usually a one off issue that rectifies itself?

Window has remained closed this morning - I've had VAG cars all my driving life and this is the first time I've had this issue..

Are you sure the open button wasn't pushed and held by accident possibly when the key was on your pocket as this would activate the window auto open function?

The car would autolock after 30s but the windows would stay down.

The keys were not in my pocket and had the unlock button been pressed both windows would have been down I would have thought..

I'm just worried about it reoccurring somewhere a little less "safe" or when it's pissing down with rain.

It may well be just a one off but was hoping to hear from others who may have experienced the same..

I guess you could test by holding down the unlock button to see if both or just one window goes down. Cetainly rule it out. On my Scirocco there is a setting within the convenience menu to change between one or two windows for the auto open function.

I know a few owners with MK5 Golfs and MK3 Sciroccos have experienced similar to you. Not heard of it happening on a car as recent as yours.

I would suggest turning off the option that allow the windows to open when the unlock button is held down on the keyfob. You can then rule that out if you're still finding they are opening when the car is locked.

Thanks for the responses - I checked the opening of the windows and it brought both down from the key fob, I have currently switched this function off.

I may give SEAT a call in the morning to see what they suggest but hoping it was just a random one off and won't be a persistent problem...

You're not alone (nor is the Leon)......
