What kind of oil should be used for squeaky car doors?
1 Answers
Car door noises can be addressed using either grease or engine oil. Here is additional information: 1. Noises caused by door seals: Over time, door seals naturally age, creating friction between the seal and the car body, which can produce noises during driving. In this case, replacing the seal with a new one is necessary. 2. Noises originating from the door itself: This issue occurs when the door lock pillar is installed too outward, causing the door to not fit tightly with the car body. Adjusting the door lock pillar inward until the door fits snugly with the car body is the solution. 3. Noises from door hinges: After prolonged use, hinges can significantly increase friction, leading to noises. Applying a small amount of grease to the hinges will greatly reduce friction and eliminate the door noise.
