Hi, My vitz is producing continuous weird light cracking sound from vitz doors top while on uneven roads, even on light jumps. Someone suggested it could be due to door rubbers. Experts, please give some solutions.

Its vitz 2014.Yes i think its dryness issue. Rubbers looks fine by naked eye. Nutt/bolts are ok too.
Will check your 2nd suggestion, lubrication.Cracking sound is coming from door tops where door rubber is attached with the body.

I have read somewhere, self-adhesive strip is used around the door opening to solve this problem. Whats your views?

Yes, its basically due to dry rubbers and mud particals, oiling the rubbers solved the problem. Thanks everyone.

Which oil you used?

Its normal oil used for car nut bolts oiling. It will not effect car paint. You can use any oil/lube keep in mind it has no effect on the paint. Purpose is just to remove dryness in rubbers.
