Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    I had the same issue on the rear left door, it was just the rubber lining rubbing on the car so I simply pushed it up so that it would no longer rub

      Read through this thread for info on lubricating seals:

      B Pillar clicking / ticking & door rubber / seal creaking / squeaking

      Hinges - as mentioned above you can use a general purpose grease/lubricant on the hinge as required.

          Hi,

          I've got a rattle in my doors at the handle end of the door (not the hinge end). Any suggestions on what I can do to resolve the issue? It's happening to all four of my doors on my Mark 7 Wagon.

            Squeaky door seals

            Hi, anyone else having squeaky/noisy door seals? I have read that a solution is to put some irrigation tubing between the felt on top of the door. My rear doors are very noisy.

            I have read about this issue with the mk6 but haven't heard anything about the mk7.

              What works for me currently is to wax the inner door parts that runs against the rubber seals of the body.
