Default door sealing shut

i have noticed that passenger side door seems to be letting air in. like door isn't sealing shut. passenger side top back of window. at speeds over 75 miles an hour it gets worse. anyone ever have this problem. and what would be the best way to fix.

I think that underneath the reflector at the bottom of your door panel there is a nut and bolt affair that will adjust the pitch of the window. I had the same issue after my last vette got hit. I played around with the adjustments till I fixed it. Hope this helps...
