Door squeaks

Post by johnjm »

Hi All

Anyone have a solution for some serious door squeaking? It seems as though the door trim is rubbing along the B pillar trim, it squeaks pretty badly I have noticed.

Leads to this with the paint ....

Applying krytox or similar to the door seal helps. Or clear anti-squeak tape.

thanks - are we 100% sure that its these parts that are rubbing against it? I was under the impression that its the door plastic trim rubbing against the b pillar plastic trim. But I think you may be correct, if I look inside the door area I can see some funny marks caused from rubbing...
