Opening side windows

[bullet]

Hi, has anyone had problems shutting side slide windows. On the sliding side door (nearside) it opens ok but is a real struggle to get it to completely shut. The plastic trims above and below the squeeze together door catches don't seem to sit in fully. I can see a spring in the bottom of the bottom trim where the plastic cover is not fully home. Just wondered if anyone has had this trouble? Thanks. (By the way it is a T6, 17 plate highline Kombi model)

I am having the exact same issue and came on here to try and work out what seal I need to replace but it does seem to be more of a mechanism issue as you can push the window in. We are getting wind noise as a result, so i am going to try replacing the handle mechanism first and give it all a clean

Had a similar issue, I know this sounds daft, but try sitting in the van with the door closed and see if the window shuts properly. This worked on my van.

What’s the other method?

Yes thats how I have identified that there is a problem. But I am trying to find out the solution! Seal? Locking unit? Any help welcome

For some reason the window wouldn’t close fully when the door was open and I was reaching in from outside to close it.
