Rolf,

My '98 A41.8Tq did this too! Usually it would happen when I set the knob to
close the sunroof. It would close, but then open again. More than twice, I
wondered if I had imagined trying to close it!

The dealership never found what was wrong, I just assumed it was the typical
VW/Audi electrical weirdness that you have to live with if you own one of
these cars. At the Honda dealer where I work, we have had a couple VW Jettas
traded in that would mysteriously roll their windows down. The problem must
be fairly widespread.

It seems logical to me that it might have something to do with the drivers
doorlock window/sunroof opening feature.
