I have wind noise in the drivers door around the window seal but it doesnt appear to be the seal. The reason is, if I grab the door frame up at the top left hand corner and pull it in while I am driving I can get the wind noise to stop. The door doesnt feel loose, no play in it at all, but I can still pull it in ever so slightly and the noise is gone. Is there a way to make a drivers door adjustment so the door shuts more tightly? Again, the door is not loose but if you pull on it even an 1/8" or so it does stop the noise. I saw the post on a 2001 xj with a similar problem but they were told to replace the seal. I tried putting an additional rubber seal in the door last night and closing the door and I still had the noise. Can someone shed some light?

Hello, first if you were to adjust the door, so the seal was tighter the door line would not be correct. I do believe the problem you have is in the seal. You should replace the seal and the problem should be corrected. Also they had wind noises from the mirrors also. There is a seal for these too. Let me know if it helps thanks pat
