Default Passenger Door hard to open/wind noise

It would appear that the passenger window doesn't go up and down when opening as much as the drivers door thus making it a little hard to open. Wind noise was the initial problem only to find out about the window in my search for the noise. I just get a little road/wind noise at or above 75mph from the passenger upper back window area. Do i need to take to the dealer for an adjustment or do i have another issue?

Did you calibrate the PAX window properly? That is, does it FULL OPEN and FULL CLOSE with just one tap of the button, or do you hold it?

It full opens or closes on one tap. I even tried the re-calibration trick i found on the Aston thread. They thought it was the same problem with both cars. My indie re-calibrated my seats which turned out wonderful. He says that if you ever replace the battery the seats will lose calibration. Do the windows??

That's what I'd try first thing, it's easy and free.
I have no idea if Aston has the same procedure, but here it is and it doesn't matter which direction is first;
HOLD switch up or down TWO SECONDS longer than full glass travel, the release and hold AGAIN for two seconds in same direction.
Do the opposite direction same as first.

I will try that again but that is the same thing the Aston thread recommended. Thanks!....I could have screwed it up!

I think you have to hold it up after the window us fully up until you hear/feel a click. Somewhere on this forum are instructions. I think it's in one of the battery replacement threads.
