Extremely noisy doors

[SupraP-Z]

Theres always been a slight squawking sound as i open the the doors in the supra, nothing too bad. Recently its been sounding like a dying pig, how the hell do i get rid of that awful noise?! Any recommendations on lube that actually works?

Try oiling the check straps and make sure all the bolts and nuts are tight

WD40 usually works for a bit.

But as above, oil the check straps and the hinges

"White grease" in a spray can

Use White Lithium Grease , dont go near WD40

Red rubber grease or white lithium greas eon the strap/plastic road on the front bit of the door going into the wing. rub some of that and open/close the door a few times. All sorted

 

Mine's the same, will be doing it tonight. I can get a picture to show what I mean if needed

grease the moving parts and job done, i used wd40 but it doesnt last long, it needs thick gooey grease

[Hitbox Junkie]

Lube it up and go all the way

Pure silicon grease, great staying power, high melt coefficient, lubrication, will not stain clothing. I apply it to the rear tailgate rubber seal as they can start squeking with the weight of the tail gate on the rubber seal, it makes the rubber look like new. A small pot at a plumbing merchants is circa £8 but well worth it. Can also be used in the engine bay as it does not get upset with high temperature. Hope this helps.

Thanks Guys, ive already tried WD40, doesnt last long at all. White lithium grease, silicone grease and red rubber grease are the answers i was looking for. I thought red rubber grease was for brakes! haha.

 

Thank you all!

Grease is grease, I use my red rubber to cook pancakes. Gives them a nice pink colour. White lithium is good but it tastes like Californian butter. Blech.
