Mini windows whistle

Hi Everyone. Just a beginner to NAM sight. I have a 02 mini copperS. I have a problem with the windows not going up high enough. Both windows whistle in windy conditions, or highway travel. The left side glass closes higher up than the right window. Both don't seem to be fully up. The R/window can be seen pulling away slightly from rubber with a wind gusts. So far no rain gets in. My hubby has tried to raise the glass but no luck. we tried the reset toggle button but no luck. Thought about door dropping but not that either. Even with the radio up the whistle can be heard.
Does anyone have rattles around the centre pillar where the seat belts come out. Other than those my mini is fun to have.

The windows are fully adjustable - you just have to remove the door panel and then loosen the bolts holding the window. All the way up you should just be able to pull a sheet of paper thru. Get ahold of a manual and it'll walk you thru the adjustments. I've been using the haynes manual and have been very happy w/ it.

Good luck,

Nik
