SJ forester do it yourself fixes. Doing it with elbow grease and brain power. Just to share and hopefully empower others to get rid of some irritating issues that may cost $$$ to resolve.
Hihi, found your video as the creaking noise is also frustrating me too much. May I ask wad is the aerosol that you used and where can I find that locally in SG and where to find the long tube that allows u to reach inside the b pillar? Have not done this much dismantling on a car before and trying not to break any of the clips is one major concern for me. Thanks much in advance!

Hi there, yeah i know how you feel with that irritating creaking noise, I went to a couple of workshops but non was able to help, after some self researching i managed to find out the actual issue which was related to a factory fault affecting a batch of foresters. At that at the time, the lubricant that I used was the Tf2 lubricant (about 12 bucks a bottle) meant for bicycle chains.What's different is that this type of lub, when dispense, becomes sticky and is meant to bond onto chains and is weather resistant. Using those liquid types will also work but may not bond as well, and I did not want the trouble of having to re-apply again. The nozzle can be found on line search for "aerosol spray tube," and you should be able to get some hits. Hope it works for you. The good thing is that the creak noise never came back after my DIY session. Hope it works out for you.

Hi, so it is not friction of plastic on metal as I thought, it is metal on metal creaking in the places of welding of the car pillar? I have been listening to this cricket for a couple of years now.

@FISHERMAN33RUS yup, at least for mine. There was an issue with dry joints. Research pointed that there was a issue with one of the welding machines at factory which was later corrected.
