Back from vacation and noticed all 4 power windows on the car was open about 20 cm. It had been raining and the seats/floor was soaked in water and Clima control total out of order and no lights in centre console.

I have googled that a smiliar problem existed on earlier models, but has anyone knowledge that the problem persist on the C7 series?

The AUDI dealer is convinced I accidentally pressed the "unlock" on the key and I´m convinced I didn't...

Anyway is it possible to see in the cars log, if the function has been activated and when?
Also when the car has driven or not (dates)?

Thanks for any help.

Disable the convenience mode in the MMI for the windows.

This happens alot as all it takes is one little continuous press on the unlock button and they'll drop. It happens in your pocket without you knowing or a spare key stored up against something.

Afaik no way of showing what happened and when.

Do you have the convenience opening active for all windows or just front?
if only front, that does not explain why rear door windows has opened...

Covenience is active for all 4 Windows, however as we carefully checked house and car windows and doors before leaving the home, I am certain this is not what happened.

There was a post about this a few weeks back and my wives '12 Golf had a similar thing with hew LR window. It seemed to be that the car had lost its memory regarding the top and bottom positions of the window and as result tried to over close the window and that triggered the anti-trap mechanism. Solved it by opening the window and holding the switch when it was fully open and likewise closing it and holding the switch. May be a similar issue for your car although it would be strange as to how this happened when the car was locked and "shut down"" whilst you were on vacation.
