How to Deal with the Creaking Sound in Haval M6 Car Doors?
2 Answers
Reasons and solutions for car door creaking: 1. There might be small objects inside the door panel, such as lighters or coins. Simply remove them. 2. The interior panel or audio system might be loose. This issue can be identified by shaking the panel by hand or pressing the creaking area while driving. If the noise stops, that confirms the issue. Tightening the components should resolve it. 3. Rusty door hinges. This can be heard when opening or closing the door. Clean the hinges and apply some grease. 4. Aging door seal strips. Lack of maintenance over time can cause this issue. The best solution is to purchase a bottle of silicone grease for self-maintenance. Apply the silicone grease to the seal strips, let it absorb for an hour, then wipe it off for effective results. 5. Poor contact in the door lock mechanism, gaps, or insufficient lubrication. Applying grease to the lock mechanism or wrapping waterproof tape around the lock pin a couple of times can solve the problem.
My Haval M6's left door has been squeaking a lot recently, especially when opening and closing, which sounds particularly annoying. I tried some DIY solutions: first bought a can of hinge lubricant and sprayed it on the hinges, then rotated the door several times to let the oil penetrate evenly. If it still squeaks after lubrication, it might be due to aging or deformed weatherstripping. I checked the rubber seals along the door edges - if there are cracks or depressions when gently pressed, silicone grease can be used for temporary repair. Loose interior panels can also cause noises, so I tapped the inner door panel and reinforced any loose spots with double-sided tape. Performing these minor maintenance tricks regularly can prevent major repairs later. Remember, excessive noise might indicate hidden door lock issues - it's better to get it checked at a garage early to avoid higher costs down the road.
