Please keep focus on the thread topic and not on my bad English. I assume everybody understand that I meant to ignite the engine, not myself :-) It was certainly not that bad :-)

Yesterday I experienced a weird problem with my new Superb II: I parked the car on the crowdy street, get out, locked the car and jumped for a parking ticket to the corner. I came back, pressed unlock button on the key in order to put the parking ticket inside - car unlocked as usually, BUT all windows dropped down cca 5 cm (except window at driver!). I pressed lock button shortly, car locked (and windows stayed open). I closed them by holding down the lock button for few seconds. Tried again to unlock the car - and 3 windows opened again 5cm down. I called to the Skoda car service and they told me that there is apparently problem with the remote key unit ("sticky" unlock button on the key). I could not believe that, because if they were true, the windows were opened completely and not 5cm only. Nevertheless, I went home and did the test with my second spare key. Same behavior - 3 windows dropped down 5 cm always when pressing shortly unlock button. I tried to start up and turn off the engine, lock-unlock the car 2-3 times, still same problem. Next I tried to ignite-turn off engine and then immediately pressed unlock button on the key. Did the test - and everything was back in normal, including folding rear mirrors when holding lock button down. Did somebody else experienced this behaviour? Is this something wrong or (I could imagine) is it some "extra" feature enabled by some combination of lock/unlock buttons on the key? I have heard some cars have similar function to protect children locked in the car at sunny days by opening windows to ventilation position. Thanks for any advise or tips.
