Default sqeaky doors

I've got squeaky doors on my 03 GT and I've already tried using just about any kind of lubricant that you can think of including white lithium grease. It only squeaks when the door opens on both sides. IT almost sounds like something is rubbing on something else and bare but I always lubricate the hinges extremely thoroughly. Anyone know what this could be?

Maybe it is the door stop mechanism. I am not sure what it is called but use something like WD 40 and spray the underside of each hinge and the door stop part also. Work the door back and forth a few times and spray it again. Good luck.

Have you tried graphite? Are the doors sagging at all? Is there any play in the hinges? The mouldings could be rubbing as you open the doors. Just some ideas.

Figured it out. I had the bottom half of the door rubbing against itself. Little grease and viola'! It actually wasn't the hinges like the common problem tends to be. Thanks everyone for your help. I really appreciate it.
