United Kingdom 2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE Zermatt Silver
Wind Noise Door Gap

Driving back from The Alps this week my wife noticed that the was a lot of wind noise coming from my drivers window or door when i began to notice it too it was a real pain to be honest. when I looked at it later I checked the seal and it was fine also checked that the window was fully up , then I came across a huge gap between the top of the door and the body so big i could get my finger in between them at the top of the door , so it looked like a major door re-alignment job aaarrrggghhh !!!!. I took it a friend of mine who has his own garage just for him to look at it and confirm what I already knew , he then lowers the window grabbed the top of the door and bent it backwards towards him with force ( i nearly fainted ) the result - a nice tight door fitting no wind noise and job done, better than it came out of the factory , he said he did it to a lambo a while back and it worked a treat. I just ust know i would never do it myself !!!!
