Squeaky Door

[triker08]

I have a 2005 Newmar Mountain Aire that had a squeaky door. I sprayed the rubber seal with silicone, and that seemed to work. 5 minutes later the squeak was back. I finally figured it out. The dead bold was the problem. I put some white grease on that, and what do you know. No more squeak.

That's good to know. My '05 Windsor squeaks now and then and the DW will pull on the door handle and it stops. Can't seem to get her to hold onto the handle for the entire 500 mile trip.
I'll try lubricating the dead bolt and see how that goes!
