Hi all,
we had quite a storm here in NL yesterday, the remnants of the depression that wreaked havoc in the UK (again) last friday.
Driving near the coast, the i3 had to cope with windforce 9-10 with gales on top, while driving 80-100 kmh, so the circumstances were challenging, to say the least. The resulting suction on the side not facing the wind, in this case the drivers side, seems to cause a problem at the top side of the window. The window was pulled from the top rubbers by some gales. It could be newness (stiff rubbers) or it could be the window doesn't close far enough (adjustable by the service team ?). We'll see how it develops over time. Anybody observing this issue with the i3 or has anybody observed this with any other frameless BMW windows ?
BTW: I hope that all UK members here are OK, for the situation seems quite dire in the southwest...
Regards, Steven
