Highway Wind Noise Post Air Bladder

Keys got locked in my car and got a guy to use a air bladder to slightly expand the gap so he could fish my keys out. After that I’ve noticed a significant increase in wind noise above 45 mph. I’ve covered my car in kilamat sound deadening so I like to appreciate a quiet cabin and this is kind of defeating the whole purpose. I’ve inspected the rubber seals and, visually, they don’t look damaged or in rough shape? And I was just wondering if anyone had any ideas. My window rubber seal does look a bit rough but not the area where the door meets the body. Any ideas would be great, thanks, mike

The bladder could have tweaked the door frame a little. Take a piece of week (like a small piece of 2x4 or 1x2 and stick it between the door frame and the post where the latch is. Open the window and give the window frame a little push. It should bring the window frame back in line. It may take a few tries to get it right.
