My window leaks.. I looked in the how to... Can You adjust the window. The top isn't the problem. I'm like an 1/16 off in the front corner, its enough to get water trickling in.

If it is not just the tip in at the rear, you may need to remove the door panel and do a major adjustment to recenter the glass in the opening.
The adjustments at the bottom of the window regulator rails are for minor adjustments only. You cannot adjust the glass forward or backward without loosening the clamps that hold the glass in the regulator.
