silver6933 Posted November 6 Share Posted November 6 Purchased a pre-owned 2020 model around six months ago, and it is the most advantageous $17,000 I have ever invested! It even included Full Self-Driving! The only concern is that the passenger door window strikes the frame during closure. There is no wind noise when driving, indicating a secure fit on the frame; nonetheless, it rattles significantly while closing the door. The technician at my nearby Tesla service center said that the issue is typical due to the frameless design of the doors; nevertheless, he did not recognize the severity of the problem in comparison to the driver's side door. It is quite evident. My investigation indicated that early Model 3s may modify the window angle by removing the door panel; however, Y doors are constructed differently. Is there a method to do a DIY repair on a window slap? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silver6933 Posted November 6 Author Share Posted November 6 Indeed, when opening the door, the window descends slightly to avoid obstructing the trim. I am referring to the situation when the door is closed. The slow-motion footage shows it rebounding off the trim before coming to rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ultimatesoy Posted November 6 Share Posted November 6 To the best of my knowledge, it should not be elevated till it surpasses the trim. I contend that my mine ascends upon contact with the gasket, far from the trim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MokweleScoop Posted November 6 Share Posted November 6 A malfunctioning door latch may be indicated if the window operates prior to the door being completely closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver6933 Posted November 6 Author Share Posted November 6 I must clarify that the glass is making contact with the window's gasket when it is closed, not the trim. It ultimately comes to rest at a considerable distance after completing its bounce. I will attempt to upload a video later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shakee Posted November 6 Share Posted November 6 If you have previously calibrated, remove the door seal and carefully reattach it. Occasionally, they are not positioned properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
