Default passenger window slamming.

My passenger side window slams into the window lock clip on the t-top if the window is not let down a little bit when the passenger door is closed. I am afraid it is going to break my window. Does anyone know a fix?

You will need to pull your door panel off and do some adjustments on your regulator. There is a diy video on youtube on how to install and adjust a window regulator on a C5. Not a difficult job. A little side note, allow yourself some extra room when adjusting because when you put your door panel back on, it will push the window out and up a little. Gently close the door after each adjustment until you have achieved the proper seal. Hope this helps.
P.S. This will be good practice for you "when" your regulator goes out.
