i don't exactly know when it strated, everytime i go up or down (in an angle)my drive way or going over speed bumps using just a driver-side wheels (sometimes i use my driver or paasenger side wheels only attemp to avoid most of the speed bumps as possible...i'm sure some of you can relate) my driver's side door makes this weird creeking? or some type of grinding?! noise from what it appears right by the door handle or somewhere in that immidiate area... it doesn't matter if the top is up or down.

does anyone have this problem?! please help....

 

Hi NX ZR,

k......after trying everything i read, i finally figrd-it out!!!

in my case, it was the little "pointy" metal-rod looking thing...sorry no pics!...that lines-up into a hole as you close the door....(it's located close to the top of the "door-jam?!")....you'd be able to see it as you open the door, it's not common on any other cars, at least i don't think-so, i just never seen anything like it before on anyother cars.....anyways, i found-out that it's not lined-up right with the hole, so i spray some lubricant "WD-40"....."this can start-up a different subject FAST!!...hehehe" and eurika!!....NO MORE NOISE!!

ya try-it and let me know if it works!!...obviously worked for me!!

now that i know what it is, i'm going to find-out if it can be warranteed or if not, i will apply something better than WD-40 to make it last longer.

this is a re-post, sorry!
