Does anyone have a procedure for adjusting doors ?

We are starting to pick up wind noise on both sides at the leading edge of the rear windows. We also hear the drivers door rattle on bumps.

Thanks.

Someone posted earlier this year about the cold having such effect on doors. If I remember correctly, there is a way to adjust it on the tridion. There was even a mention of graduated marks. It sounded simple as far as DIY is concerned...

Did you check with the dealer and see if the adjustment is under warranty?

JP. I'll try and search that out.

Tiger. Yes they did adjust the drivers door two months ago under warranty,

But we are now about to run out of miles, and this looks like a reoccurring problem. Need to find a DIY fix I can do from time to time. A2Jack

Again from memory, the squarish buckle on the tridion is bolted on and there are some marks there. Have a look at yours (mine is parked a bit far). Maybe that's the key to your (and many's) issue?
In the pics below, it's in the lower right corner, just hidden by the SCoA's logo in the first one, of course...:
