Lx450 Door Hinge Creaking

white lithium grease is the pro choice

it stays in place and gives a good buffer layer

i am not sure how bad it is noise wise

but give it a shot then after a week if it isd still there then think of getting the door readjusted

it's the only reason I have ever used this product......Armor All Protectant. It works great on door hinge squeaks. Whether it be the screen door to the porch or the car, it works better than WD40 cause it doesn't dissolve away.

WD40 is actually a solvent and not a lubricant. White grease is the best but it is hard to apply sometimes, especially when trying to get it into the hinge post.

spray a stream of Armor All into the two hinges, get the posts so that it soaks in. It won't wash off that easy in the rain or car washes.

Mind you, it is only a temporary fix until you can get some white grease inside the hinge.

hmmmm

i never actually knew there was a real use for armour all

interesting

the white grease i usually get comes with a small nozzel like wd40 so it can be concentrated in a small area or crevice

it might help with the overspray effect of the can
