Does anyone know how to lessen or eliminate this creaking noise?
Ever since I got my 26 Golf R, I’ve had this annoying creaking noise that’s gotten progressively worse. At first I only really noticed it to the left of the driver’s seat, seemingly coming from the B pillar area, or maybe the corner where the driver side door window meets the corner of the driver’s door.
I now hear it from every side, but seems to sound the loudest on the driver’s side. That could just be because that’s what I’m closest to as the driver though.
Interestingly, when I roll down the driver side door window, it lessens or almost completely goes away. I’m not sure what to make of that.
I hear this creaking noise entering and exiting driveways, going over speed bumps, turning, and on pretty much any imperfections in the road.
I did buy some gummi pflege stift and have applied it to all four door weather strippings, and pretty much every other piece of rubber trim around the doors and windows, but that hasn’t seemed to help.
Any ideas appreciated. Also curious to know if anyone else has the same issue.
