Parked and locked my 530i the other night and when I returned to the car about 10 mins later both the front windows had lowered themselves by about 3 inches. I've searched for any other occurances but no avail. Wondered if anyone had experienced this?

Yes.

Take the car to the dealers and ask them to switch off
the keyfob function to lower the windows remotely.

Blinking nuisance, in my view.

I always hold my fob in my hand when i walk away from my car for this very reason. There is a market for a better design. How about a clamshell design to hide the buttons, like a flip-phone type design.
