Lots of road noise/gap between door and weather stripping after paint
Okay,
so after i got my truck back from paint i noticed a SHIT TON more road noise..so i checked the weather stripping and repaired as needed(yea double sided tape failures lol) but i still have lots or road noise on my driver door AND water gets in on a heavy rain. After closer inspection I noticed that the top front of my door is not really flush against the a-pillar like it should be. Is there a way to adjust the door? my guess would be the top hinge is too far out of adjustment or do i just have to roll the window down and try to bend the frame? Note: when the truck was painted the mirrors were shaved so could this have anything to do with it? -Mike |

Re: Lots of road noise/gap between door and weather stripping after paint
it's possible that the welding deformed the window 'frame'
the only way to close that gap is to bend the frame but you risk cracking the filler where the mirror was shaved........ your shop really gave it to you in the ass mike........take it back and make them fix it,then if they crack the mud they have to repair it |
