First, the assertation that adjusting under tension doesn't do damage is incorrect. Virtually all rod failures are from adjusting under tension. In the context of the OP, adjusting under tension is bad advice.
I'd almost be willing to bet that a rod adjustment isn't the correct fix, but without seeing it in person, I couldn't say.
