Vent window adjustment...
I tried searching but without much luck. Can the vent windows be adjusted? The right side does not close all the way, and I cannot force it closed. Thanks!

To my knowledge there's no adjustment there, and I feel your pain as I too like most of us have the squealing vent window.68Slug on Thu Jun 07, 2012 9:10 pm

I'd first try to replace the handle assembly on the vent window to see if it might pull the window tighter?
Here's a really good tutorial on the door assembly that shows some real good pictures of the entire assembly.
I thought it might help you:
