The door seal (felt) can be fixed with petroleum jelly. That's right. I had creaking door seal for the longest, and not even a twice dealership replacement worked. Apply petro jelly, no more squeaking for about 6 months now. God sent.
and, do i have to apply it to the place where the seal is cracked or all around the perimeter on the door?
Thank you

Vlad, we are not talking replacing transmission...it's transmission module that was replaced on mine. Have you tried the 25 second rule to reset the tranny? some forums members had luck with that and it cost nothing! Here is the link on how to reset the tranny:
