Squeeking doors. How do i stop them while driving on highway
I know my car is getting old but theres got to be a way to reinforce the front doors. I can push with little force and almost push the top back corner of the door open a crack even tho its latched securley. When im on the highway i get a Squeeking noise form those corners like something is rubbing, and occasionally i get that wind wistle comming in. The rubber surround on the door seems to be in good condition.. sould i try adding more weather stripping?

Sounds like you need your doors or striker bolts realigned
The opening a crack sounds like the striker bolts need to be moved inward. This will cause the doors to fully close.
For the squeeking, that is the weatherstripping rubbing against the door and squeeking because it is dry.
Order some Zymol Seal, or go to your local BMW dealership and pick up some "Gummi Phledge" (german for "Rubber Care") and apply it to your door seals.
It contains glcyerin, which will revitalize your seals and keep them slick and prevent them from drying out.
