Default Door seal

Has anybody here had trouble with drivers (right hand drive)door seal? I have a 2002 Blazer and the seal where the door and the windscreen meet leaks. Even in light rain is leaks bad. I think the door may have dropped and is not sealing when closed.

When you close your door, does the door lift up when it slides over the striker pin? It is quite possible that your door pins are worn, causing the door to sit lower, not properly compressing the weather stripping.

I'll have check when it comes back to me. I can hear a lot of air coming through the door when driving.

I've had a closer look and the door doesn't even close flat, so those pins will have to be replaced. Only seems to be the drivers door. The pin is all rusted and look worn.
