Window Gap and resetting it

Hi All,

My passenger side window has a small gap about 3mm at the top of the glass when its fully closed. The window is able to open/close as normal, and when I open the door it drops down as normal, and goes up when the door is closed. It must of happened when I disconnected the battery.

Issue is it doesn't fit snug into the rubber as the other window does, leaves a few mm gap at the top, causing wind noise at speeds and letting damp cold air into the car so is causes condensation.

I have looked online and found a few ways to reset the window, but nothing seems to work. Anything else i can try? Or does it look like a trip to the dealer for a software upgrade?

There are a few threads on here about how to adjust the window up a few mm. Something pertaining to removing the door panel and using a special clamp tool to adjust it up or down.
