Squeeky boot door

Now I have worked on the boot courtsey light I had used the backdoor a few times. And it started to develop an awful squeeky noise when opening and closing. The struts were still good though. So I ended up spraying grease on the hinges, this wasn't helping though, despite they were being rusty



I also sprayed the strut arms but that wasn't helping either. Turned out it was the strut ball joints were causing it. So I had that sprayed as well and this did the trick


On this photo its more visible that dirty rusty brown grease is leaking out of it


So I sprayed up also all the other movng parts


And the locking mechanism


And the hinge of the fuel capopening was a bit rusty too but was working ok though. Nevertheless sprayed that up in any case:


And all the door hinges as well. Needless to say, all is going smooth again. Another step closer to perfection.
