What To Use To Grease Rear Spoiler Mechanism??

[mark wheeler]

My spoiler started making a creaking sound when it raises. I only noticed it when I raised it manually when the car was in the garage last night.

Anyone know what type of grease is recommended for this and is there any grease or spray that I should definitely stay away from?

Is there a TSB or DIY on how to do this the right way??

Thanks,

Mark

I had the same problem and I used this spray lubricant that dries to become a grease. It's great because it penetrates when you spray it (like a liquid) but, it lasts like a grease. I don't think a regular spray lubricant would work well because it is exposed to the rain and the elements. I can't remember exactly where I lubed the mechanism but, I haven't had any problems since then.

Here's the product:

I have no relationship to the vendor or manufacturer. I'm passing on information that I hope is helpful.
