Make that +2.

Try pushing the top of the window frame in towards the car with the door wedged open by a cushion/towel around the lock area. It certainly helped on my 75, not a 100% cure but now much quieter.
Total fix involves turning the radio on :-)

When I have the door trim off, I'm going to see if I can adjust the glass runners.

Well mine sounded like kids jumping up and down on a bed, so it couldn't be the handbrake, it had to be the springs. OR COULD IT....

I tried leaving it in Park with the handbrake off - no squeaks at all!!!!

I wouldn't have beleived it in a million years. So there you go, there is always someone on here with the right answer...

tnx,
