Default Vert Wind noise

Are there any adjustments to bring the top of the drivers side window closer to the rubber molding. They do not quite match up and I am getting wind noise.

Before I start tinkering around I wonder if someone could give me an idea where/if I can make adjustments to get a tighter seal. The window and rubber molding are both in good shape.

I recently saw a post where someone pointed out a little screw on the underside of the door. If you loosen the screw, and push whatever it's holding towards to the outside of the door, it pushes the bottom of the window outwards. I would assume that would tilt the top of the window inwards. Never tried it myself, so you might want to search for the thread just to make sure I rememered it correctly.

Hope this helps. If so, please report your findings so that I know for the inevitable future.

John's got a good writeup in here. I need to do it to my passenger's side window this winter.
