Window adjustment to keep water out

I posted this in C5 General, and it was suggested I post here. My 2000 coupe has a small leak where the driver's window meets the weatherstripping. The leak appears to be where the the window slopes from front to rear, going up, where it meets the flat part of the window along the roofline.
I searched on this and found some references but nothing at my level.

Thanks!

I tried the tip-in adjustment as my passenger side gets wet when it rains hard. Maybe I didn't go far enough, but I still have the problem after turning the window in.

I saw this post but it referred to instructions. Where are the instructions? How do I get to that bolt? Thanks for your efforts!

The one for the front portion of the window is inside a rubber stopper area, on the bottom (underside, really) of the door itself.
Looks like a smallish bar of soap
