Ever since I bought my '04 Titan there was always this ticking/rattling/squeaking sound coming from the doors when going down a bumpy road. After searching through this forum and doing a bunch of trials and error troubleshooting, I finally discovered this past summer that it is the weatherstrip around the door jambs that makes contact with the door. I think the door moves and flexes and rubs against weatherstrip causing this issue.
My fix was to spray silicone lubricant on the weatherstrip and wipe it down with a rag. This eliminated all of the ticking noise, rattles and squeaks I was hearing. Problem is, it is only a short term solution. After about 2 months the weatherstrip dries up and the noises are back. Does anyone know if Nissan upgrade the material the weatherstrip is made of or is there a permanent solution?
