My x type estate rear window glass has begun to open as I go to drive away.

Circumstances are that I unlock the car by pressing "open" on the keyfob twice. On putting the car in gear (auto) to drive off, on turning the steering wheel the rear window unlocks and opens.

This seems like some sort of escape mechanism I have activated inadvertantly but I am not aware of doing anything different to normal to cause this to happen.

Can anyone help as to stopping this?

Hi Charlie,

My estate did the same thing. I was able to adjust the latch catch mechanism to better center it with the glass metal loop.
There are plenty of threads on here about the situation and solution, including a technical sheet from Jaguar that a member scanned and posted. I'd supply a link to it but I have limited internet functions while I'm on vacation. But they are here and it was recent too.
Good luck,
Tom

 

....... and mine too. Really irritating. I got it fixed and it worked for a while. Now it won't open.

Will have to wait for spring before i take another look.
