squeaky doors- g55

My one biggest complaint about the G55 has to be the fact that all 5 doors develop a very annoying squeak over bumps or basically whenever the cars chassis flex, which as you might imagine is quite often. I've taken her back to the dealer for adjustments and they seem to be able to get it to stop for a little while but inevitably, the squeaks come back. Maddening.

I've heard others speak of "Vlad's Magic Anti Squeak Cream".

Seems to be an issue with the striker on the door:

Frankly, I have no idea.

Anyone have a more definitive solution before I plunk down $47.00 for some magic lubricant?

Did the dealer felt areas that would be problematic?

No. I think they are mucking with the hinges or something.
