Just about every stag I've had something to do with's windows clunk around at some point. Weather its shutting doors with them down or if the door is shut and their halfway down you can rattle them around abit. Dono about others but it shits me to tears.

Has anyone got a fix for this or know what needs re-adjusting? I've pulled door skins but nothing has jumped out at me at to what it could be.

All my windows/doors are fine except the front passenger window. Clunks when you close the door. I've pulled it apart twice chasing this mystery 'clunk' and cannot find it. I've just learnt to live with it.

To what extent did you pull it apart? Surely if you were to pull the window and arms it would stand out like dogs nuts...

Im clearly living with it atm but would be nice to get a fix sorted for everyone

A couple of my windows rattle if they are a down a litle bit while driving. I think it's just part of having frameless windows, every car I have been in with windows like that has had similar things

Yeah my stag and 2 previous 180's have all had the same problem. Joy of having pillarless windows I guess. Mind you my back ones seem ok. But they rarely ever get used so thats probably why. Even my back doors seem a lot stiffer to open and shut because they also rarely get used. I would love to know how to get rid of the wind noise on the fronts without having to get weather sheilds.

man i have a wind noise with the weather shields, wish i knew how to get rid of it

its your window close height - it needs to seal up against the rubber

my outback was perfect until i knocked the drivers door and messed up the gaps, then i got wind noise from that door

All pillarless windows are adjustable, up/down - in/out - front/rear, but rollers also fail over time.

Adjust stoppers at top of door for height, adjustable bolts on vertical rails for in/out and slides in middle of door frame for front/rear.

I've replaced all 4x doors on my stagea and had to adjust so they sealed and didnt hit weather strip at top.

My drivers rear clunks whilst going up but think I left something loose! LOL

!!! Also have 4x spare regulators and windows with good rollers if needed !!!

    • That's not a transistor --- it's marked ZD1 which makes it a zener diode. As to what the breakdown voltage is, not enough there to divine.
    • Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers
    • The incentives are mostly the same, yes. Ethanol is cheap compared to the cost of doing 98-100 RON with crude oil alone. 87 to 93-94 AKI all with E10. In 2020 Canada mandated E10 as a part of their "renewable fuel standard" and is supposedly going to go to E15 in 2030. In California where there are only 8 refineries with two threatening to shut down next year it's been over 20 years now of E10 and 91 AKI maximum because there's just not enough refinery capacity or crude oil supply relative to the demand for premium unleaded fuel. And CARB's low carbon fuel standard means functionally none of the diesel available at the pump is made from crude oil anymore. It's almost all entirely 20% biodiesel blended with 80% renewable diesel (hydrotreated vegetable oil) now. The number of gasoline vehicles that support E15 or higher ethanol concentrations is surprisingly low, I can't imagine it being wise to play tricks like this without flex fuel sensors in most of the fleet.
    • It's almost certainly the same as the one next to it.

    • South Australia, which is hardly as far behind as the rest pf Oz makes out, and who is also not a paragon of progressiveness (read that as over-legislation) in the area of vehicle standards, has this to say on the subject: Adjustable coil-over suspension Aftermarket adjustable coil-over suspension components are suspension units that incorporate an external thread on the main body and corresponding threaded spring saddle that allows the vehicle's suspension height to be varied. If fitting aftermarket or coil-over suspension components you must submit an Application to modify a light motor vehicle form and a report from a light vehicle engineering signatory (LVES).
