Many thanks in advance for any Light shed on the Subject. Pete If you run a search on the C5 sub forums you'll find that this is a stock fault. All C5s suffer from premature failure of the opening rear window, and if you are buying your car from a dealer get the window fixed. The new rear window is about £350. Alternatively, if you can't get the window fixed before collecting the car and you can't get it paid for by the dealer or previous owner, send me a PM and you can have a PDF of the fixing instructions. In your search, however, you may come across instructions from a member of this forum which are slightly quicker and easier. HTH. Quote

I gather all Estates have the opening Tailgate Window Then? There was no Button on the Key Fob or any visible method on the Window itself. Could you please tell me where to look. Many thanks.
