I had the same problem on my 98. The dealer actually moved the windows forward in the door as well as adjusting the window. That was 5 years ago and everything's still fine . Cost me $ 100.00 labor.

try the tip in adjustment. I used this adjustment and it worked for me.. It cut some of the wind noise. Good luck with it.

If the top back corner of the window is touching the top, you need a top adjustment. This post has pictures and instructions.
