Hello,

I just bought my first mercedes. It is a 1997 e320. I have not found a solution to the creaking doors however. The driver door notes a oil symbol and every 7500 miles. I used white litium grease but it still creaks. The noise seems to be coming from the middle part that go into the door. Am I missing something? Does anybody know the proper way to oil the door and the product to use? Thanks.

 

This part that holds the door from swinging open 180-degrees is really ****ty in MB. It wears out easier and faster than the one in Toyota Corolla. So bad that every Benz dealer is experienced and skillful in replacing the part.

 

Yep! Really annoying on my 300E. Doesn't seem to be any fix unless the part is replaced!
