Creaking doors
Got the creaks?
BTDT with the silicone. Replaced all four stricker stubbie things on the body
when I got the car. I've adjusted them and the doors.
If you've done the above and still have some annoying creaking doors it may be
the windows. I don't know why it took me almost a year to figure this out but
my worst noise came from the LR door. Only last week did I figure out it was
the window. Crack the window a hair and the noise would stop.
Having just done a window motor the week before I knew what I'd find with the
panel off. Most of you have BTDT with the doors a billion times.
All I did was adjust the screw that sets the max window height back a bit. Run
the window up and down and do the same. When it finally went up as far as it
liked to or I should say was allowed to by the window molding I stopped. A 6mm
socket fits the adjuster.
Then I backed off the four 10mm bolts that position the window L-R etc and run
the window up down and retighten.
Quiet windows now!
Try it.
