Window/Seal adjustment - wind noise

Hi,

I just got a 2006 997 Carrera 2.
With higher speeds (above 120 km/h) i can hear the wind whistle above the passenger window. I bet it is not up enough (I can feel it with a finger from the outside - it is sitting a bit lower than on the left side).

Is there an easy way of adjusting the height of the window? I already tried to press the close button when the window is up to reset the position (as the manual suggests) but this did not help.

Thanks

No easy way but if you have some mechanical skill and some tools, i can walk you through the adjustment. Door panel has to come off for access.
Car probably had a window reg done at some point and not adjusted properly on install.

Thanks. That would be nice.

I have already found a step by step manual how to remove the door panels. So then I'd need to know where the adjustment is.

I have the same problem.
Is there a 'how to' guide for this?
