    Default rear door driver side weathering seal issue??

    do not know what it is called but the rubber trims around the car that the door closes shut to. sort of weather seal if i am right???

    the top one of the rear door driver side. is always coming off the place it is supposed to be fitted to. causing wind noise and possibly water coming in.

    Anyone got a good method of securing it in place???

    What i have done so far is bang it back in place but when door opens and closes 2-4 times it pops back off. cant be helped cos my son uses that door to come in/out of the car.

    Is it in one of the corners?
    If so, I would guess that it needs stretching a little from all around, so that it isn't tight into the corner. Try pulling it off along the edges and pulling it tight into the corner before knocking onto the lip feature of the surround.

    Top one, making the middle slack down. Did bang corners to stretch but keeps doing it.

    Should i take it down and sides and start top and stretch as i go to sides??

    Yes, just take it off completely, and refit it while gently stretching it as you do it, all the way around
