Shoot some white lithium into the mehcanisms such as the latch themselves. The tumblers should be lubed with a dry lube such as graphite.

I think I saw this stuff you smear onto your key.

I saw it at some hardware store, like Lowe's, or Ace Hardware, maybe.

If their is stuff you can get like that I want to get some, if you can get it online then I will get some. But I am lazy and won't remember to get it anywhere else.

I had squeaky door handles when I bought my car. Squirting white lithium grease up into the the door handle latches while holding the handle in the open position made all the squeaking disappear.
