Door and window

My driver's side door leaks when it rains and it also seems as though I can hear more wind when I drive. How do I make sure that the window is completely engaged (because to me it doesn't seem like it goes up all the way, so, how can I fix this?) and how do I tighten the door (at the locking mechanism I'm assuming). Thanks!

Re: Door and window

I'm no pro but have you checked the condition of the weatherstripping around the door?

Re: Door and window

I agree with ^^ regarding the weather stripping. Also do you have power or manual windows? If the door is not closing properly, you may be able to notice a difference in the gaps around the door compared to the other side. I would maybe give a good, hard visual at that as well.

Re: Door and window

I looked at the weather stripping and all seems well. I have manual windows and they seem to be going up all the way. The door is straight and it does close fine, but when I push on it (from the outside) it seems like it could use a bit of tightening (by a few mils is all, but that may be just enough). How do I go about tightening the door at the latch?
