Has anyone had any issues with keeping the windows up with the top down? We've only had the car for two months and didn't want to damage anything.

Other than you getting called names on the forum... It will do no damage to anything. Here my wife tried as she did not bring a hair tie but it was 95* and to hot with it up.

Nothing will happen if you keep the top down with the windows up.
Im not sure how it is on 5th gens but my 4th gen i have to put the windows down a few inches when i bring the top back up.

When you press the button to raise or lower the top, all 4 windows automatically go down.

You are good man! The windows go down when you hit the down button. UP it does not matter. You can drive with them up or down..... I have not heard any issues with window position.

Windows do automatically go back down if they are up when you start to put the to put the top back up. Driving with the windows up and top down will not hurt anything.

No. Just no.

If the top is down the windows should be down.

We will call you names if you drive with the windows up! Looks so stupid to me.

He didn't ask for opinions on what you think about driving with the windows up and top down, all he asked is if it would hurt the car. Show some respect !

I don't understand why people do that, do they think they are being helpful or just trying to be funny? It's not a good thing either way especially towards a new member.
