Default Has anyone ever had their window adjusted to create a better seal?...
I am looking at a labor cost estimate for getting this done to my passenger side window since water and wind noise creeps through even when the window is rolled up all the way. If I can do it myself that's even better, if anyone has a walk-through for this that'd even be better. Thx in advance!

Default I can't give you the details as I didn't do it myself (not very helpful) but
there are a couple of ways to adjust. On my car, the tech popped out a seal inside the door and adjusted with a screwdriver as I recall. It was a matter of trial and error but it is not a big deal.

Default Common design issue...usually fixed by the dealer (often after several tries). A FAQ is needed.
I think I remember Jeff Bipes talking about this ages ago (roadster though), you might check out his pages.

My bookmarked link doesn't work or I'd post it for 'ya.

Default I have adjusted the location of my door latch pins to relocate the window, it cut down on wind noise
You need a 8mm 12 point tool to do it though. Luckily I still had one from removing the hubs on my old rabbit & scirocco.
