Door "clicks" twice when opening and closing
Hi
Anyone have any tips on resolving this issue? My 08 gs350 makes a clicking noise when you open the doors really wide and again as you close it. I've tightened all the screws around the door check... Also lubed it as good as possible.
Could it be something to do with the door check pin? Has anyone replaced that and if so, how do you replace it?
Thanks for the tips and suggestions.

I will ask the dealership how much it would cost to replace the actuator when I bring my car in for the recall. From what I heard it could run into several hundred bucks.

The actuator itself should just be a few bolts, a plug and play harness and then hooking the ball end of a cable into it.
I personally don't see why opening the door would cause the actuator to click but... just take the door panel off and open and close the door and listen to where the clicking is.

Sha4000, I think you are bang on.... Not sure what's causing it. Really hate to open up the panels just to find it. Not sure if it's something I can just ignore and not worry about the whole latch breaking.

This is the piece that clicks o the drivers side of my LS. I can see it move when I open the door. I know you have to take the door panel off to get to the other side but don't know how to detach the piece in the pic. It seems to be held on with a pin in the middle.
