Anybody have specific advice on where are the lube points and what lubricant to use.

I can see obvious locations but how to make sure all points and locations are lubed.

Any non-spray lubes?

I'm confused as to how the internal hinge points work.

Any diagrams.

A= Internal to the door B= External hinge point and accessible.

I used some Lithium Grease with 3% Moly.

Valvoline Paladium Grease .

Applied heavily to all 4 surface of the black rod/bar.

Then open/closed the door about 5 times.

Then removed excess leaving only a thin film.

Wearing Nitrile gloves dabbed finger tip into grease and jammed into the Pivot point area "B"

Wiped off excess.

Door is operating smoothly and without that dry, sanding, type sound.

Internal Point A can only accessed by interior panel removal.

On the other hinge points, I used a small oil can and applied a few drops of gear oil (heavy weight) to each friction point having a rag to catch any drips.

Open/closed door 5 times, wiped off excess.

I don't like spray cans because it covers an area with overspray.

Dirt loves to stick to lubricant.
