    Squeaky door hinge

    Any recommendation to fix a Squeaky door hinge?

    Mine is a 3 door, so the hinges are under more stress than the regular 5 door Golfs.

    White lithium grease? Or something else?

    WD-40 the check rollers and hinges, then apply some contact lube like chain spray.

    WD-40 will stop it from making noise but not for long. You want something that is more sticky that will not wash off. White lithium grease is good.
    Clear out all the old crap first.

    I think WD40 then lithium grease.

    Doh, I was just in Bunnings over the weekend but forgot to buy some grease.
