the whole point is to provide lubrication. some lubricants are better suited than others and lasts longer, but thats about it. Once upon a time i use armour all on the rubber until i found gummi pfledgewei0306;464656 said:WD40 can work as well ? I got this creaking sound as well.

My e60 520i (8months old) LCI has some creaking noise as well but it's on and off... some days louder than normal and sometimes it's really quiet. It was really quiet when I brought it in for first 12K service at PML (Alexander) and the SE drove it with me thru some roads and it didnt make a squeak. Anyway, they were so busy that they didnt even have the time to look at my other problem like passenger side mirror not going back to original position after reversing...I seem to be getting squeaks and creaking noise from the front aircon control panel and central arm rest area... but not from the doors. So I guess the friction tape is not applicable for me. But I'd like to hear if any bros having the same problem as I and what DIY method worked. I'm very tempted to tear apart the front trim to get access to the aircon control panel....

Although PML has changed the mirror before, the problem remains. The SA said the last time that they will email Germany for solution, till now still no news from them. Apparently this seems to be one of the many common problems for the 5 series. :errrrrrr:

The sound disappeared completely after about a week and that was 2 and a half years ago.
Spaying directly onto the rubber can be messy and you may end up with it on your clothes when you get in and out, so that's why I used my finger. That doesn't sound right - but you know what I mean.
