Last week i replaced the plastic bush to stop the door from creaking and cracking , all has been well since yesterday and its started to creak again :( i didnt grease it as was advised not to , surely it hasnt broken already :-\ Is there any other bits to replace apart from the bush ?
-
The door check strap might need reinforcing. There is a how to on this. Can't link it, sorry, typing from my mobile
-
Check the mech itself is tight
-
Yes mechanism itself often benefits from attackingwith file and sandpaper and the liberal greasing. It is easier if removed from the car.

It does seem a bit loose , its only creaking a bit when the door is being opened/not closed but not the cracking that i had before i replaced the bush ..

Dont mean to teach you to suck eggs old chap but did you tighten it properly? I didnt on the first attempt and it sounded like the door was ripped off!
