Unhappy window hitting roof/conv. frame

i have a '02 SC and noticed that the passenger side door does not close well due to the window hitting the roof/frame of the car as it closes. it's very snug and hits the plastic molding. if i use a bit more force, it closes fine but sometimes when i try to close it like i do for the driver's side, the door will not close correctly.
once there was a huge gap with alot of wind noise coming through until i dropped the windown and closed it again.
it's dropped off at riverside, CA dealer today 10/3/02.
will let you know how they fix it... just a small adjustment on the window regulator maybe. . .
course the serv. mngr tried to blame the window tint company. . . but they never touched the window mechanism . . .
anyone with similar experience???

Sometimes when I open the driver's window, I hear a loud popping noise when the window gets free of the roof. Anyone else have this problem?

Mine still fits cleanly after 10,000 miles. Dealer should be able to fix both your problems...

Default window fixed

the window was easily fixed
problem listed " window stoppers set wrong - adusted"

bring it in. . . easy fix.
my pass. side window occ. made popping sound to when opening the door.... window too high. . .
another time, there was a huge gap at the back of the window.... lots of wind noise but door was shut all the way. . .
