2008 ML 550 - Rear Hatch squeak
When Opening/Closing my rear hatch, there is a pretty bad squeaking sound.
Sounds like it is coming from the shocks, not the hinges.
Anyone have any ideas as to how to/with what lubericate the shocks? Everything works great with exception of the noise and I do not wish to replace the rear hatch shocks.
Thanks very much in advance

my ML has the power rear hatch, so I would assume the shocks not to be cheap, as one (or both???) are motorized.

Looks like about $11 to $30 each. At that price it’s probably not worth screwing around lol.
