Car Door Making Noise When Opening

Common steps to stop the squeak.

Car door making noise when opening.

The door check is what holds the car door to the frame and keeps the door from closing once it is opened. Like you said the door doesn t catch no rub at the fender etc. The sound is coming from the front of the door. Most power door locks operate using gears or motors that may quietly whir or make noise when they operate.

It feels fine like it s not loose or anything it s just really loud and annoying. If you compressor turns on and the low side pipe going into the firewall of the engine compartment is getting cold around 30 40 degrees and you are not getting the same temperature air out of the dash vents then you have a vent ducting or fan problem. But man that spring can make a pretty awful pop noise. When the door is closed there is a couple clunks then a thud.

It often collects grime and dust which can create a noise when you open the door. It does the same thing in the same place as i close it. I know on mine the door hinge was making the popping. When the weather was cold the car creaked popped groaned and made all kinds of noise.

Those noises are normal. It is another area where you may hear the squeaking noise which can be caused by rust or dirt buildup. On my 99 z28 it would act up every few months more when cold. What is causing this and does it mean big trouble soon.

If you have air flow but it is not cold check the blend door for operation first. Unusual noises coming from inside the door are one of the first symptoms of a potential problem with a power door lock actuator. The sound of a car door opening and closing.
