Sqeeky drivers side vent...i think.

Funny Mitsu, makes all sorts of noises.

It sounds like a little mouse on a sqweeky running wheel. Im 90% sure its coming from the vent it self, because if I put a little pressure on it while driving over bumps...it doesn't sqweek. Its not INSIDE the vent, but its the vent ITSELF.

So...anyone have any good recommendations on how to maybe lubricate it or something? Some kind of odor-less, plastic safe and non toxic of course. I don't want to breath this stuff in when i have my a/c turned on.

Anyone else notice any common sqweeks within these cars?

You're loling now.

But when your car makes a "EEEEEEEEEEEEE" as the speed increase, i promise you won't be loling anymore.

But seriously, what the heck do i put in my vent to make the noise go away?
