Can any one tell me how I can adjust the maximum height a clubman wind up window will travel to?

At maximum height (fully up) there is a tiny gap at the top of the window. This is obviously very annoying when travelling at speed.

Is it even possible to adjust this height? I have fitted new felt seals around the window already, a bit better now but still not good enough. :?

can you lift the glass up higher when the window is as far up as it goes?

There is no adjustment really. I'd say you maybe have a bent lift arm in the door.

With my passenger door all the screws/bolts holding the winder and the "channel" part were all loose so the glass didnt go all the way up as it was on an angle. So if you can lift the glass higher, then it might be this!

I can lift the window glass higher, but all the bolts are tight and its still the same. I tried to get a bit of adjustment out of the winder screws (slightly repositioning the winder to lift the arm a bit) but it kept winding up to the same spot.

I may try a little creative persuasion! :wink:
