Got your email and I would have tried what you have already done.
Sorry, got nothing else.

Subject: noisy hatch struts

So, am I the only one who has experienced this problem?Noone has any comments//
Is anyone getting this or my original post??
Here is the original post.
Hi all.One of my hatch struts has started making a horrible squeaking noise. A loud noise.  I tried greasing the lower attachment point and using lube and penetrating spray on the piston.  Nothing has worked.  Any ideas on this one??
BTW, anyone know what size the circlip and washer are?  I need a spare set.

Please post if you received this.  Even if you don't have a solution.  When I asked if anybody got it,only 2 replied came back.
