Hi all:

Pulled my driver side door arrestor and am replacing it with a new one. What type of grease should I use on the new arrestor? I'm tending to think something thin like a heavy duty silicone lube or white lithium. Those who know better, can you steer me right?

By the way, here is a picture of the old and new arrestors to illustrate how worn the old one had gotten (it did not stop the door).

Thanks,
Matt

I use Porsche’s high pressure grease. Same stuff as for the clutch.

I've used a thin coat of SuperLube grease on these. New ones definitely need some lube!
