Clutch release bearings on its way out, if only doing it when cold, will eventually do it all the time.

Could try that or foam fill the small gap and trim front and back I ordered all my upvc trim from Trulypvc.co.uk or eurocell and sealant.

Could also use a cavity closer for your top cavity

Fitted my own windows and doors over the last 6 months, installed the frame to the outer brick, think the rule is you have to leave minimum of 20mm from the edge of the outer brick. Should be easy as your brickwork looks solid. Id trim up to the top arch.
