Wind noise - question on potential adjustments

[TeamBFT]

2008 Coupe
So at highway speeds, getting a nasty wind noise from drivers side window. Upon inspecting for any gaps, worn rubber seals, etc. I noticed the gap between the glass and the B pillar seems a little wide.....and is a bit wider at the top than the bottom. There are no issues with open and closure.

I guess I could try adjusting the stryker first to just make the glass sit firmer against the rubber seal.....but was curious if there is an adjustment from fore to aft for either the door or the window itself. Door alignment seems okay in terms of gap at leading edge and trailing edge in terms of meeting the body panels. So adjusting the window glass itself would be preferred.

Thanks for any insights!!

I notice when I open my door the window cracks open a touch, then when I close the door it also closes that gap you identified. I have a e93 so im not sure if the coupe is different but it seems to me that the last step of window closing is not completing for some reason and that is allowing your window to stay open a touch letting that wind noise in. Try opening the passenger side and see if the window cracks up and down a little as I tried to describe.

So I adjusted the Stryker inward about 1-2mm. I also used a little leatherique on the rubber trim/seal. The vertical section between the glass and B pillar was definitely harder and not as flexible as the rest around the door. Heck, probably supposed to be to a certain point but did feel dried out.
Wind noise is gone. Of course now I can hear a l little plastic rattle I need to resolve.
