What to Do When the Car Door Squeaks While Opening and Closing?
1 Answers
Car parts between the door and the body may require lubrication over time. Here is relevant information: 1. The car door and body are connected by hinges, similar to a household door. It is normal for hinges to make noise after prolonged use. To ensure the smooth and silent operation of the hinges, it is recommended to apply lubricant every 2-3 months for maintenance. Additionally, there is another component connecting the door and the body, known as the door limiter. As the name suggests, it is used to restrict the degree to which the door can open—first, to limit the maximum opening angle, and second, to maintain a certain opening angle. 2. If the car has been in use for some time, it is advisable to check whether the door seal has aged. Since the seal is made of rubber, it will gradually deteriorate and wear out over time, leading to noticeable wind noise and friction sounds for passengers. If the seal is aged or damaged, it is recommended to replace it directly. Also, regularly clean the dust and rainwater from the gaps in the seal during daily use to prevent aging.
