LOUD door squeak! How to fix?

[Rob Slade]

Hey guys, my door is sqeaking so loudly. I have tried to put some white lithium grease in the hinges and still it does it. What else should I try? It makes it sound really old and falling apart when it isn't. Also it is pretty embarassing when you get out of your car and half the parking lot can hear you. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Try some silicon spray. Always works on mine.

Mine does that- I just use WD-40. Its good for a long while (2-3 months). I just spray it again when squeeking comes back. Lithium grease might not be penetrating to the part that is squeeking. Give the WD-40 a try.

My front driver door has a small white plastic cylinder thingy in the hinge which was rubbing and causing a squeak. I WD-40'd everything and moved the thingy around a bit and no more squeaking.

PB Blaster would work better as a penetrating oil. Make sure the squeaking isn't from body panels rubbing together, and maybe check the hinge bolts.
