<<     I just got a 96 Jetta GLX last week, and so far I love the car. One of
my gripes, though, is that over substantial bumps in the road, my doors
(especially the rear ones) make a rather irritating 'squeaky-squeaky' noise
that frankly pisses me off. While I was working on my stereo this week, I
fiddled with the doors, and the sound seems to be coming from the tops of
the doors, where the frames meet that piece of rubber weather-stripping that
runs the length of the roof along the door sills. I figured I'd replace the
weather-stripping, unless there is some way to tighten the fit of the door
in the sill. Any suggestions? Thanks,

What you are looking for is something called isolation tape. It too took me a 
long time to figure out where the squeaking was coming from. The dealer can 
install it for you, or just buy a roll and do it yourself. The part # is AKL
