Default fixing door hinge noises

when i open my driver side door it makes a real loud clugging noise because i guess it needs greasing up. Anyone have this problem and what can i use to fix it? I dont think wd40 would do too well..

Yeah I dont think WD40 would to well or not for long either. Just grease it. You can buy a container of it cheap for under $5.

I would find a bottle of some sort of dry lube and use that, like the stuff they use for bicycle chains. wd40 or anything else like that will just make dirt and dust stick and gunk up your hinges.

+1.

but if its a clungging noise check and see if the bolts holding on the door are tight. this happened in my moms car and all we had to do is tighten those bolts.
