Stuck front windows

Probably my fault, but everything was frozen up this morning and I tried to lower the drivers window too early and it wouldn't open - also tried the passenger window - same thing. Thought nothing more about it until coming home this evening. Both windows only go down marginally and up again to close. Perhaps needs a reset - going to dealers on Friday for heater recall so they can sort it out then.

Also it takes an age for the rear screen wash to defreeze on these frosty mornings

was it that cold today? it was warm in sunny Yorkshire. you may have upset the auto windows functions this can be reset,
1. Close the window fully.
2. Release the switch, then lift it to the close
position and hold for two seconds.
3. Open the window fully.
4. Release the switch, then push it to the
open position and hold for two seconds.
5. Lift and release the switch to operate the
one touch function.
6. Repeat the procedure on each window.

Also try adding extra screen wash to strengthen the mix At work

It won't go in - the Freelander 1's only just went in with the mirrors folded - FL2 no way.

Besides, I've got to keep the Harley Davidson warm and dry !!
