Audi's need velcro and silicone!
I believe most of my squeaks are coming from the rubber parts in the door, alongside the window, headliner and such. It seems that, over time, they dry out and make noise like crazy. Ditto for the seats and such. Maybe that's why it always seems to get worse over time. Hmmmm...
I hope to make a list of places where the noises come from and maybe post a tech note on what to lubricate, with which lubricant.
I got the car detailed today and noticed that it was almost impossible to get the squeaks to happen for about 30 minutes, then it started coming back slowly. May be because they "detail" the door jambs, under seat areas and such, much as I do when I take care of the car myself.
You guys with squeaks from the door, have you tried putting silicone on the window frame, door seal and joining part rubber, front and back? I have a hunch most of it will go away.

Re: Audi's need velcro and silicone!
I don't know if this is to be tru with Audi, if you close a the door of an older car from at least 98 you notice that the door closes harder, to get rid of this is to redo the weather stripping can be expensive be noise is cut down and the sound of a quite door is presant
