Do they squeak when you open and close them, or when you are diving down the road?

All you can really do is lube up the hinges. Try using a spray lubricant with teflon. It will penatrate into the hinge and form a film when it dries.

They do get squeakey with age. You can try loosening the hinges and realigning the doors. Sometimes the body tweaks a bit and the hinges get misaligned. They end up binding a bit causing the squeak.
