Exactly the rubber seal isn’t quite totally sealed on the bottom of the wing on the outside. I tried pushing on it but it doesn’t do anything. There isa tiny crack between the rubber and the window. When I’m driving if I push on the glass a bit from the inside it stops. I’m just gonna urethane it and be done with it.
