    So ever since I bought the Tacoma, I've had this "crinkle" or "puckering" type noise, if that's the way to describe it. from the door seals. Basically over Bumps, the body flexes and the weatherstripping makes a noise. Since the door is less than 6" away from your ear, I hear it.

    I tried adjusting the door stop to put more pressure on the seals but that didn't do anything. I tired to lubricate the outside door seal without any success. Finally figured out it's the inside door seal near the upper corner. I used silicone grease, the type use on plumbing orings as it doesn't affect rubber. I applied a light film on the seal near the corner and worked it in. This finally got rid of the noise.

    This is the inner door seal on the cab I lubricated.20180219_063907.jpg
