on my chim when the driver and passanger windows are wound up fully there is a gap which lets air and water in, I presume its the seals that are the problem ????. the gaps bigger at the back than the front.???

Any idea how to cure this ?

the gaps probably bigger at the back due to the door needing a little adjustment.this may remove all of your problem,but if you still have an overall gap,then you can adjust the window height when fully raised.the screw for this is down inside the door near the top ie just a little lower than the brush seal you can see.wind the window down fully,move the brush seal to one side untill you can see the screw(sometimes allen key,sometimes slotted).turn this screw a .little at a time before raising the widow and checcking the difference.

they can be adjusted a little by loosening and moving the striker plate attached to the door.if this cant give you the amount of adjustment you need,then your into loosening and moving the higes.this is significantly more tricky!

There’s also an adjusting screw about half way along the window! This will also allow you to adjust the height.
