    Hey, another question on my 355, when it was running, my electric windows would always have truble going up near the top, and i'd have to click the switch a lot to get it all the way up, this happens with both windows, and i just though maybe the car is just like that, wonder if anyone else has this problem, are they all like that? do i have a problem? if so anyone know how i can fix it?

    Thanks again!

    I have not seen 355's with the same slow window issues of earlier ferraris (I've owned a 308 and 328)...then seem lightning fast by comparison. If there is a problem, I would check everything carefully. In particular the window regulators, which are a known to have issues with that welded securing tab that can break off, causing the regulater to "rattle" inside the door. If that is happening, it is possible the regulator is binding in the door.

    Thanks for the suggestions, So this problem isn't common with the 355's? mine are very slow and have trouble at the top. no raddling in the door that i can remember though, any suggestions what else i could check for problems? the modules looked like a good idea otherwise

    Slow windows are a common problem on pretty much all Ferrari's.
