Creaking noise from driver door panel
Re: 2007 S-Type - wondering if some of you have experienced this.
When the car is moving, there is a creaking/grinding noise that originates from the driver door panel.
If I press my left elbow against this spot, the creaking noise goes away.

Probably a loose fastener? Any quick remedies, or do I have to take apart the door?
TIA.

Quick fixes: Duct Tape, Construction Adheisive, Chewed Bubble Gum (preferably yours), Plumbers Putty, Self Tapping Screw (screwed threw finished door panel into door frame), ummmmmm, wooden wedge, Super Glue, Poligrip(?), uhhhh, 3M tape reaching my limited abilities...........
Or call Nalley and order one of these:

Grab a couple of cold beers and a trim removal tool (Auto Zone) and fix it correctly

I use Microsoft Paint (free program), but Joyce told me that I could use Microsoft Office, I think Power Point (pay program) , but she hasn't shown me how yet. Joyce says its easier to navigate
BTW the pin comes in the picture comes with the black foam washer.
Open up paint, "open" a pic on your puter and start to fool around thats how I learned the basics, and thats all I know is the basics.
Just remember to use the "fattest line" for the circles, squares and lines. Also use the largest text I believe 72, so theres no squinting required.
