holy crap this is driving my NUTS!

am i the only 1 that gets annoyed by this squeek? I know its the door cause i tap it when its open and can hear the noise! I really dont want to go to the dealer, and if i do what will they do? Will i get just a new door or the whole console?

Im ready to rip it out!

I have the same problem and took it to the dealers 3 times, they can never duplicate the noise and hasnt been fixed yet. I've been driving around for couple of months now with this squeeking. Where can i find the TSB with the vents or the Lid fix.

I have a squeak also but I found out it wasn't my radio door but the center console. I just used some dash board protector like armor it works like a lube kinda.

Mine squeaked when I first got the car last July. Pulled the radio console off and put more grease (already had some from factory) on the hinges/gears and the squeak stopped.

I had the exact same thing as you!!! It didn't matter what i did, how i drove, what i grease i put in it mine still sounded like i had a mouse in the dash! With out going crazy on the stupid thing, I finally got the tCover it's like 115 bucks @illusivemotorsports. After installing, No sqeeks and rattles, no stuck radio door, no finger prints on your dash and i think it is really trick! Some say it's not worth the money i think it is worth every penny.

hmmmmm........well i just bought some raffel tickets that PresissionMuffler.com is doing and their raffeling off TEIN S-tech's and the tCover. Hopefully ill get that! I might have to pick one of these up?

Was it easy to install? Is it a new door or just some wires to connect to the ignition?

i tried that DuPont white lithium grease? Its not squeeking much right now (knocking on wood!) It does when i hit a big break in the road. Hopefully it will set and go away! If not then ill invest in that tCover?
