alittleedgy Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 I have an annoying sound coming from the area of my door post - doesn't sound like its coming from the door itself but rather from the area of the door post. I hear it when I hit the brakes, or when I accelerate, or go over a bump. A creaking sound - something like metal surfaces or plastic surfaces in close contact sliding relative to one another. The dealer seemed to think it may be a bad weld in the body under the door frame trim - all of that would have to be removed. Anyone have any thoughts/suggestions?

iceman33 Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 I had a smilar problem on my vehicle a while back.. The dealer rectified the problem by adjusting the latch on the door. Problem gone.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a fairly common problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alittleedgy Posted March 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 Lubed the latch. Its a fairly common problem. Thank you - I did so this weekend and the problem seemed to clear up. Very strange since the sound seemed to come from the door post rather than the door latch - the sound must have traveled up the to the door post somehow. Anyway, thanks again!
