Yeap.

You may need to hold the drivers window in the closed position for a few seconds to reset it

The sunroof can need resetting as well. Although I appreciate that an S is unlikely to have had one specified. Thumbs Up 2006 D3 HSE (Original & still the best)-GONE

Don’t forget to open the bonnet to maintenance by pulling the catches on the hinges Thumbs Up It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.

Open the bonnet fully, look at the hinges and you will see a little catch/lever on both hinges operate it and the bonnet will open past vertical to allow the battery to be removed vertical without a struggle Thumbs Up It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.
