#1: Creeky doors Author: 206gti_chris, Location: SussexPosted: Sun Dec 23, 2012 3:19 pm ---- I know this is the door strap bit, but can this be quick fixed... or will it need to be replaced. Have tryed WD40 but doesnt seemed to have worked 100% made it slightly quieter.. but still has that strange creek... also seems like its looose is it safe to tighten those bolts? Could that also be part of the problem
THanks

Also it kinda clips on the top first and then hangs down,so taken it off is the reverse of this.
