Magic Windows (Not Global Opening)

hey.
just bought a '17 Leon estate (yesterday).

all went well in test drive etc. windows were used, and had a long drive home. all good.

this morning, driving up the road, i half opened both front windows. within a few seconds, the passenger window by itself dropped a little lower. then 20-20seconds later it went all the way up (closed). I used the button to put it back to halfway, where it stayed for another half minute. then it went full Open, and i couldnt get it to close. it was stuck in fully open for a good few miles.
while this was happenning, i half opened both rear windows. they soon began dancing to a tune themselves, going up and down without my hand near the buttons. i managed to close them fully. and they stayed shut. However, i could hear the clicking sound from behind me of the motor being engaged, as if i was clicking the close button every few seconds.

this continued for approx 2miles all in. by which time, i appeared to full full control of all windows.
i parked up (all windows shut) and went for a 30min walk. when i came back they were still all shut.

i stared the engine, and began driving back. i opened both front windows all the way. within 2minutes i had the air-con switched on as the drivers window was stuck at halfway, and the passenger was fully closed.

im sure you get the idea!

What on earth could be causing this?
to try to rule out the drivers door console, i wasnt able to open or close a 'stuck' window from the window button on that particular door. however, nor did i hear a 'click' to suggest the motor had received the command.

Was it by any chance a very bumpy road?
I've had it happen on a couple of occasions not to that extent but still...
It's a "bounce back" feature, so if you hit a bump while the window is in travel it can fool this feature into thinking its obstructed, so that's normal.
The fact that you didn't hear a 'click' though seems that it's not the same issue.

sorted.
turns out it was the key!

usingkey A, no issues. using key B, all the above issues! wierd. guess it needs reprogramming or battery is on its way out.
