Door seal noise over rough roads
#16
i have been using dielectric grease on all my cars rubber seals for over 30 years.put it on and spread it out as much and as far as you can,a little bit goes a long way.it will solve a lot of your noises.a couple of dollars at a parts store.i do it every couple of months.try it,what do you have to lose.done forget to apply it to the top window rubber too.

I use 303 Aerospace Protectant. I spray it on a papel towel and apply it to the door seal (the flap and and the seal on the top). I wait for 5-10 min (keep the door open) and then just touch with the clean paper towel to wipe the excess. I do not apply anything to the glass seals. Then a creak is gone. Last time, just for experiment, I applied it only to the flap and the seal on the top of the door - the results are the same. It lasts 2-3 months in warmer weather and twice as long when it's cold.
BTW, for me it happens only to the driver door. And it all started after I decided to clean the door frame. I remember not using any chemicals for cleaning, only water. It's the reason I do not touch other doors frames LOL.

On a German Lexus forum I read that they have excellent results with talcum powder.
Just put it on your forefinger and thumb and rub it in as much as possible.
A disadvantage might be that it makes the nice black rubber grayish.

all i used was some high quality wax,not the liquid, the paste, i put it on the Upper seal, and the top of the door frame were it makes contact, the noise is not coming from the door channels, well at least mine is not, since i did it, no noise.

Shin-etsu Grease is outstanding
I use a silicone paste made for this application called Shin-etsu grease (Factory Honda stuff)... it goes on and stays on for a long time and it works great so far... took away all my wintertime squeeks and is still on there after several washings... you can get some here, it will last a lifetime as a little really does go a long way.
I tried silicone spray and it did not last long or even work... this stuff above is awesome!
Any Honda parts dept can get you a tube for approx $10. You can see a pic down this page toward the bottom for those who are interested.
