Any tips for lubricating the door handles and carriers, all 4?
And most indy shops rip out the vapor barrier then never replace it.

Online searches will find sellers of Genuine BMW carriers for around $150., this has the indy making over $300 on a 1hr job.

If the indy uses a crappy knock-off carrier, they make over $400 per hr.

Major POS indy!

I use the WD-40 Specialist White Lithium grease (spray can), to lube carriers.......and door hinges/strikes/latch pivots, wiper arm pivot points....
