Thought i'd ask before stripping down to look. My drivers door window on 1999 sl500 is slightly dropped at the front, so when opening it catch's very slightly. it goes up and down ok and drops slightly when opened and goes back up when shut. so when looking at the left hand vertical edge of the window when up, you can see its over to the right a bit at the top, ie dropped on the right. other side is straight up, inline with the rubber, drivers is not.

Any thoughts?

Sounds like it's come loose or slipped one of the (many) adjustments.
