The l/h/s rear door is making an awful crunch everytime you open it. Its actually hard to open now, to the point where passengers have to get out the other side!
Ive got a feeling its down to it sitting in a yard for a year! Ive tried spraying gt85 but to no avail, any ideas?

It's usually because the check strap has dried out/gone rusty.
Clean it up with a wire brush and smother it in grease, usually does the trick!

Nice one. Ive got some white grease that I use on the ZS's door, so this should do the trick!
