`B' Pillar - Creaking Noise
Eliminate Accord
"B"Pillar Creak
Here are two possible causes (and the cures) for "B" pillar creak on a '90-92 Accord Sedan.
One possible source is a front door latch. Test drive the car to determine what conditions produce the noise (accel, decel, turning, etc.). Now try to
duplicate the noise while holding the door open slightly. If the noise goes away with the door open, lube the latch with M77. Open the door, then push
the latch to the closed position with a screwdriver. Now lube the side of the latch that touches the housing when the door is closed.
If the latch isn't the source of the noise, it may be the sheet metal joint at the base of the "B" pillar. Remove the front door sill molding and pull up the
rear end of the door trim. Look under where the sill molding and door trim meet in front of the "B" pillar
-
you'll see a gap in the weld flange where four panels meet. Working through that gap with a # 2 flat tip screwdriver, pry those four panels apart just
slightly. Test drive the car to make sure the noise is gone, then reinstall the door trim and sill molding.
