I have a manual window and it rolls up and down with ease but when it is completely rolled up... near the front of the door, there is a small gap that would allow air and water through. The seal is undamaged. I am wondering is there an adjustment screw of something low cost i can do to raise that part of the window so I can make a complete seal with the rubber.

Thank you

Hi BFEE317,

Apply some silicone or wax based lubricant to the front part of the door glass run channel and test if the problem goes away.

When the run channels hardens it would increase the resistance and cause the door glass to tilt when it reaches the top.
