Anyone Experience This????
Hey all,
I own an '04 F250 PSD with a DR 6" kit. I am experiencing a squeaking noise from both doors (pass. & driver) at highway speeds (50+). I think I narrowed it down to the door seal @ the crew cab door divider seal. I rubed a light coat of lubricant on the seal, where it appears to be rubbing to a chalky white color and coincidentally it quieted down....again it may have been coincidence. It gets annoying enough that I need to turn up the radio to drown it out. I know people have complained about window rattles, yet I am 99.9% certain that is not the problem. Has anyone hadthis problem and how did they take care of it? I have not contacted the dealer yet.
Thanks

Welcome to FTE, Newcastle 
It looks like you need to take it back to the dealer and let them adjust the doors or check the seals.
I haven't heard of the new ones getting that much road noise. Mine, on the other hand, needs to be rubbed quite often with that truck chapstick to quieten it down, but I don't bother with it anymore. It's a '99.

I used to get to worry about my drivers door squeek. Then I put on my lift, with these damn loud tires. Now I can't even hear my bloody stereo. 
just joking.
Good luck fixing it. My experience is you'll drive yourself nuts trying to fix noises in a 6000 lb truck. As soon as you fix one noise, something else is going to start to jiggle.
