The hinge on my driver's side door has begun to squeak. How do I fix it? Any particular kind of oil, or will WD40 do the job? The car is about 5 years old.

When you move the door back and forth real fast does it sound like a woman in the throes of orgasmic ecstasy? If so could you tape it and send me a copy?

White lithium grease in an areosol can is the usual lube.

WD 40 is actually mostly varsol a water displacer. It has a tendency to slowly evaporate over time. The name actually means Water Displacement, 40th attempt.

As well, because of the silicone in it, it is bad for your paint. It absorbs into the paint. If you need a panel repaired because of an accident, and the silicone has absorbed into the paint, it will cause fisheyes in the paint.

Doors are optional. Rip it off and eliminate the squeak. Plus yu get some great looks while driving down a highway.

I'm guessing a mouse family has found some shelter, they'll be gone in the spring if they aren't dead.

I recommend WD40 and Duct Tape for all auto repairs.
If it moves and shouldn't use the tape.
If it should move and doesnt use the WD40.

A <IG welder can solve most door problems. Ok it might create another, but that is another thread.

You should get out more and meet different types of people. Maybe that would help you with your ignorance problem.

Actually, I asked what type of lubricant to use. So we'll add illiterate to your deficiencies.

You can call me whatever you want. I don't listen to morons. ;)

But hey, if "nerdy dweebs" is what you call people who are smarter than yourself, so be it. That makes for a heck of a lot of nerdy dweebs in the world! *snickers*
