thats just the bar inside, making a water seal so that non of the components inside the door die, ie your speakers and what not.. it seals the door by applying presure m 2 cents

Why it does that ===> CHEAP CAR.

That's my opinion... HOWEVER, a few days ago it was raining, and I was messing around with my window, rolling it down and rolling it back up, hoping to wipe/dry off the damn droplets... It didn't! The damned door opens just wide enough so that it's not touching the outer glass.... Is that a feature, or a side effect? ??? [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

Anyone have manual windows? Does this thing happen to the doors on your car?

Mine does that too, the door movement that is. I've seen this on other cars also, not just our Civics... so it's pretty normal.

What I do find strange though, is that it only happens on my drivers side door. Passenger side doesn't do this.

It was there for me in the beginning but came about over time. My guess is that it's the normal breaking in of most cars in this price range. My passenger side doesn't do it but my girlfriend hates riding in my car so she's rarely there to use it. As long as water's not getting in it's fine with me.

ummm.. this happening is a good sign that your window is making good contact and sealing. I could go into all kinds of laws about air pressure and such, but......... ever close your moonroof and your ears pop? Same deal. It's sealing. it's a good thing
