I just had both front window motors replaced on a 6month old 05 E60. The window anti-trap warning started turning on for the front passenger window and then the driver side window started shortly after. Has anyone had any similar issues. I had heard that even the older 5 series had similar problems.

Quote: I also have problems with wind noise from the door seals... In SoCal I finally got them to agree to replace all the seals - but it took so long for the parts to come thru that I had moved to the bay area. The interim solution was to put some weird jell or something on the door seals... so now the dealer up here says nothing is wrong! I have to wait till they start making noise again... then they will be replaced.  | How can you tell if you have this wind noise issue. Is it real obvious and noisy or not too bad. My car rides like a charm but I came from a Maxima which was a great work horse vehicle but not as quiet/smoothe.

My drivers side window motor was replaced yesterday. It only gave me trouble once.

So you get this slight rubbery/windy noise from the door. Especially when going over bumps when the door gets jolted relative to the car (good 'ol pot holes in SoCal freeways....).
