Vantage Interior pillar trim
Gents
I noticed passenger side pillar trim has little gap, but driver side is tight. i feel the passenger side is loose . Before I take it part, I looked at diagram it only showing 2 screws at top, which are pretty tight. nothing holding on front part, Anyone else has same problem.?
3MM gap between trim panel . passenger side door opening pillar trim cover.

is the issue with the weather stripping?

Ah, so the red is the paint, the middle is the weather stripping, and the bottom part is the Alcantara of the interior A pillar. And the photos are BOTH of the passenger side. Got it.
From your photo I'd say you need a new door seal/ weather-stripping. It looks dried out (the Brits would say, "perished"), and clearly it's not sealing properly.
In the future, you might consider maintaining these with Gummi Pfledge so they don't dry out again.

Here is better photos, Sorry I was out of town . I don't think its a weather stripping issue, front part of the trim rattles, feels like some came a part under the panel. I can see foam under this trim & it's loose. I'm trying to see if anyone else had same issue before I take it a part.

Looks like that panel has been stressed. Possibly someone tried to take it off and pried open the side by the weather stripping to see what’s holding it to the car.
FYI the fig tree inserts do not hold that panel on. All they do is cover holes that you need to access screws with a torx screwdriver that actually holds that panel on.
Remove the panel and carefully bend it slightly where the gaps are and reinstall.

I'm not sure but I have always used the protectant wipes on them, whether it's Armour All, Maguire's, or whatever. Done this for years on all my vehicles.
