Driver's side window rubs against other window

[Brakke]

G'day all!

Lovely weather in Amsterdam, so we went for a little drive along the countryside in the V8V.
Noticed a while ago that the door felt a little stuck, did the window reset however didnt improve anything.
Found out today that the drivers side window is touching the little backwindow, while on the passengers side there is a good 5mm in between the two windows.
The door doesnt seem to be complete flush either, so it might need a door recalibration, if searched on the interwebs but so far nothing other than some people have had to put in new window modules, which sounds expensive...

Anyone on here heard or experienced anything similar, my best bet is the drivers side door needs reallignment as it dont seem to sit 100% flush.
Checked the manual, but not sure if the trim needs to come of to do this.

Any comments or experience is welcomed!

Hi, can you tell us if this has happened suddenly, was it alright then not alright?

It sounds like something has come loose ( door hinge for example) or it's had a hard knock?

[Brakke]

Definitely not a knock. I think it slowly creeped up until a point i started noticing.
My own best bet is that the door needs to move towards the front of the car. How do i go about the allignment of the door? My manual doesnt have any pics on this....

Much obliged.

I've had a poorly aligned door on a V8V. There is a lot of adjustment possible on the door and on the glass so I'd probably not attempt to realign at home. I got the dealer to do it.

Had a look at it this morning, indeed its not just a wrench job, either the door trim comes off and then its a 2 man job or you need something to hold the door in place and ever-so-slightly adjust it.
Can't be bothered, will bring it to the stealers soon.....
