doors

[atomicpulse]

I have a 98 s10, when you open or close the doors it makes this cracking noise. Sounds like the round thing on the top hinge that moves when you open or close the door. Any idea how to fix this?

Lube it.

[atomicpulse]

done and done, but it comes back after i would say 2 or 3 days

[movin2stereo]

Use oil,not WD40 or anything along that line.WD40 is actually a degreaser.

I am using grease

[movin2stereo]

I think the grease is to heavy to penetrate.Use oil and lube the wheel and where spring makes contact.

Yes, use a decent lube, greae can't get into the mechanism.

I've tried engine oil, suggested by the manual.. no luck, i've tried synthetic grease i have, i've tried this white grease.. cleaning the part before changing types.. with no luck

Probably time for new door pins.
