...are very annoying! anyone else have this problem? a way to fix it?

 

Happens to all of my trucks. Either pull the whole panel off or like I do, pry the edges back enough and slide a little piece of sandpaper on the plastic side and scuff it a little. Works longer than silicone or other lubricants. Usually goes away completely. Best part is that I find myself always asking, am I the only one hearing that!?

nice tip...what grit would you prefer?

 

mine was the mirror mount bolt inside the door near the hinges. I tightened it up and no more squeek!

 

Whatever's handy. The objective is to scuff it and not leave it smooth.

You can also cut a piece off of a tire tube, and insert it between the door and the panel. Tuck it away, and no one will know it's there.

 

I used electrical tape anywhere the panel made contact.

 

I actually had the problem where ther mirrors attact to the door. The top back would... flutter against the glass? I tightened that thing and nothing seemed to fix it. Only thing that worked was just barly tapping the window down. Finally i had to take the mirror off and put some washers between the mirror and the door. Only thing that ever worked for me. Very annoying

So is the cross wind noise in these trucks. Dunno why the door seperates so easy. mine makes me mad. My bro has an 02 though and OMG his is terrible.

 

My passenger front door does it bad. It's the door panel at the bottom. It does it really bad when the truck is cold, or winter time. When it's hot during the summer, no squeaks. I keep meaning to take it off and fix it, but I like the sandpaper trick better.

 

Black plastic tape folded over and slide in tween the squeaky spot, been 48000 miles and no problem
