Can I blame the oil change place for my car overheating?

the spray silicone or dry lube works, at least for me it does. keep it light so yu dont end up with it on your good winter coat!!I keep a can in side door so when the weather tanks I am prepared.

Do range rover and defender hubs have the same stud pattern?

Wd40 kind of works and I know this from years of trial and error. Vaseline works as well but wipe it really, really thin as that can freeze. Silicone spray works the best. Prying the door can loosen the rubber and eventually make it worse.

replace the weather strip on your door..........treat your locks with a graphite type lubricant.......this should help.........but a tarp will prevent moisture from entering while the vehicle is idle.

silicone spray is the best thing that i have tried and do this once or twice a week to keep it wet with silicon,depending on temperature.both on door and body.
