think you need white grease on the hinges mate, is it catching on the wing??

There should be two bolts attached to a folding arm where the hinges are. Do them up as tight as they will go and this should sort the problem. :y:

i think its something lube cant fix lol it sounds like its comeing from that folding arm thing.ill have a go tightening the bolts, its not catching anywhere jus gives a nasty lil squeak at a certain point when ya close or open the door.

I had this, turned out the check straps were buggered. They guy who serviced my car sorted them out for me with a bit of welding, but you can just replace them
