Default I've got the same problem

Seeems to be that the door trim doesn't exactly hit the body of the car which thus causes this really annoying noise. I think there is a FAQ on how to adjust the door to fix this.

You need your door adjusted... I just had the same problem and dealer fixed it easy.

Had the same problem. Dealer adjusted the door and charged 1/2 hr. labor - so not much.

Default Ha! Its in the upper most corner of the window...

Its not actually the window, its the whole door. If your driving, try pulling in on the wholle top corner to see if it stops being so loud. The dealer bends your door in to stop if. You can do it yourself.

Default Is there a FAQ on how to adjust the door? If so could someone point me in the right direction...
