Any suggested products for eliminating the squeaks in the rubber surrounding the entrance door and drivers door?

There was a service bulletin 7SB010-05-04Z about this problem.
There is a kit to fix, #4908025 and a W/I p/n #128913-13-702 (or p/n 128913-01-727) ?.
Some have taped the door latch post or greased it or locking both locks or using silicone on the door gasket or taped the two door pins.

The kit works. We had the worst noise coming from the entrance door, and nothing we did stopped it. I called Winnebago and got the kit and NO MORE NOISE !! I heard about it here on the forum.

No one has mentioned that rather than being the door gaskets, the squeak culprit is most likely the door striker post. The new one is teflon coated, and totally removed the horrible squeaks from our entry door.

Paul is correct. It is the striker that causes the noise. Before we got the new one, I would wrap a strip of duct tape (don't you love that stuff) around the striker and that would work until it wore away.

I put teflon tape around the door striker post and it stopped the squeaks. When it eventually wears through, replace the tape. Cheap effective fix.

I've had the squeaking door also and found a little relief with silicone applied to the door gasket. I just called the factory after reading this topic and they are sending the updated striker post to me too. Thanks for the info!
