    theres a piece of rubber, a seal i think in the doors that may be jamming and causing it to happen.

    The motors are fine


    Its the rubber (on the back of the window, next to the b pillar) that has just folded in abit. just pull it out and then the window will go all the way up.

    All 3 of my VPs have done the same thing. I tried to find the pic i used years ago when someone had the problem, but its lost in years worth of files on this pc lol

    Once you look at the rubber, you'll see straight away what the problem is.

    The rubber is probably stuck in there good. To fix one of mine, i had to have the window all the way down, and then refit the whole rubber, as a bit at the bottom was stuck in the groove.
